We develop a model of normative systems in which agents are assumed to have multiple goals of increasing priority, and investigate the computational complexity and game theoretic ...
Traditional methods for integrity checking in relational or deductive databases heavily rely on the assumption that data have integrity before the execution of updates. In this wa...
Multi-valued logics support the explicit modeling of uncertainty and disagreement by allowing additional truth values in the logic. Such logics can be used for verification of dyn...

Protocols for distributed systems make often use of random transitions to achieve a common goal. A popular example are randomized leader election protocols. We introduce probabilis...
Abstract. This paper addresses the state explosion problem in automata based LTL model checking. To deal with large space requirements we turn to use a distributed approach. All th...
