A key challenge for agent-oriented software engineering is to develop and implement open systems composed of interacting autonomous agents. On the one hand, there is a need for pe...

As the Internet, intranets and other wide-area open networks grow, novel techniques for building distributed systems, notably mobile agents, are attracting increasing attention. T...

In contrast to a large body of theoretical work on computer systems, distributed systems are not idealised constructions, unconstrained by physical world limitations. They must be...
We present a formal procedure for structure-preserving model reduction of linear second-order and Hamiltonian control problems that appear in a variety of physical contexts, e.g., ...
Linda is a high level communication model which allows agents to communicate via a shared tuple spaces without knowing each other’s identities and without having to arrange for ...
