Abstract. In this paper, we propose a general and abstract formal setting for argumentative dialogue protocols. We identify a minimal set of basic parameters that characterize dial...
A distributed concurrent search algorithm for distributed constraint satisfaction problems (DisCSPs) is presented. Concurrent search algorithms are composed of multiple search proc...
One important aspect in directing cognitive robots or agents is to formally specify what is expected of them. This is often referred to as goal specification. For agents whose act...
A new search algorithm for solving distributed constraint optimization problems (DisCOPs) is presented. Agents assign variables sequentially and propagate their assignments asynchr...
Use of multi-agent systems (MAS) in health-care domains is increasing. MAS is an appropriate technique for many medical domains due to the characteristics of the problems in this a...
