This paper proposes a new method to design an optimal instruction set for pipelined ASIP development using a formal HW/SW codesign methodology. The codesign task addressed in this...
We present a proof-technique for reducing the nondeterminbstract agent specifications in a BDI framework by means of refinement. We implement the operational semantics of agent sp...
The unfolding of a system represents in a single branching structure all its possible computations: it is the cornerstone both of semantical constructions and of efficient partial ...
This paper develops a model for precisely defining how an agent interacts with objects in its environment through the use of its capabilities. Capabilities are recursively defined ...
Validation is an essential part of software development, and testing is a practical and widely used approach. The emerging methodology is model-based testing, in which test cases ...
