We propose an architecture of an embodied conversational agent that takes into account two aspects of emotions: the emotions triggered by an event (the felt emotions) and the expre...
More and more the system verification makes use of hardware emulation techniques that allow a speed up in simulation performance up to thousand times. Typically, a design is comp...
Software agents are one of the building blocks of ambient intelligence and pervasive computing. Adaptation to changes in the execution context is necessary in order to provide cont...
Transformational design is aformal technique directed at design correctness. It integrates design and veriJication by the use of pre-proven behaviour preserving transformations as...
