This paper reports the results of a multi-agent simulation designed to study the emergence and evolution of symbolic communication. The novelty of this model is that it considers s...
The aim of the paper is to revisit the model of Biological Regulatory Networks (BRN) which was proposed by René Thomas to model the interactions between a set of genes. We give a...
: Requirements traceability is central to the issue of requirements management, which is essential for producing quality software. Our focus on requirements traceability addresses ...
Model-based diagnosis of technical systems requires both a simulation machinery and a logic calculus. The former is responsible for the system's behavior analysis, the latter...
