Communicative commitments: Model checking and complexity analysis
TL;DR: It is proved that although CTLC extends CTL, their model checking algorithms still have the same time complexity for explicit models, and the same complexity for concurrent programs, which is PSPACE-complete with regard to the size of the components of these programs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Norms and value based reasoning: justifying compliance and violation
TL;DR: This paper argues for the position that agents should be equipped with the ability to reason about a system’s norms, by reasoning about the social and moral values that norms are designed to serve, and highlights the need for such reasoning when circumstances are such that the rules should arguably be broken.
Proceedings Article
Reachability Analysis for Neural Agent-Environment Systems.
TL;DR: A novel model for studying agent-environment systems, where the agents are implemented via feed-forward ReLU neural networks is developed, and a semantics and method to verify automatically that no unwanted states are reached by the system during its evolution are developed.
Book ChapterDOI
Applying the ATAM to an architecture for decentralized control of a transportation system
TL;DR: The experiences in applying the Architecture Tradeoff Analysis Method (ATAM) to a MAS architecture are described, containing both the main outcomes of the evaluation and a critical reflection on the ATAM itself.
Journal ArticleDOI
Towards a 3D Spatial Urban Energy Modelling Approach
TL;DR: Two recent research approaches developed at EIFER in the fields of a geo-localised simulation of heat energy demand in cities based on 3D morphological data and spatially explicit Agent-Based Models ABM for the simulation of smart grids are described.

Journal ArticleDOI
Statistical physics of social dynamics
TL;DR: In this article, a wide list of topics ranging from opinion and cultural and language dynamics to crowd behavior, hierarchy formation, human dynamics, and social spreading are reviewed and connections between these problems and other, more traditional, topics of statistical physics are highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI
Developing multiagent systems: The Gaia methodology
TL;DR: It is argued that a multiagent system can naturally be viewed and architected as a computational organization, and the appropriate organizational abstractions that are central to the analysis and design of such systems are identified.
Book
Programming Multi-Agent Systems in AgentSpeak using Jason (Wiley Series in Agent Technology)
TL;DR: The Jason Agent Programming Language as discussed by the authors is a programming language based on the BDI Agent Model that allows to define simulated environments and communicate with multiple agents in a BDI agent language.
Book ChapterDOI
Computational Intelligence: An Introduction
TL;DR: The general public becomes rapidly jaded with such ‘bold predictions’ that fail to live up to their original hype, and which ultimately render the zealots’ promises as counter-productive.
Journal ArticleDOI
Agent-based systems for manufacturing
TL;DR: The evolution of agent technologies and manufacturing will probably proceed hand in hand and the former can receive real challenges from the latter, which will have more and more benefits in applying agent technologies, presumably together with well-established or emerging approaches of other disciplines.
