Commonsense knowledge often omits the temporal incidence of facts, and even the ordering between occurrences is only available for some of their instances. Reasoning about the temp...
We establish the complexity of decision problems associated with the nonmonotonic modal logic S4. We prove that the problem of existence of an S4-expansion for a given set A of pr...
Autonomous agents working in multi-agent environments may need to cooperate in order to ful ll tasks. Given a set of agents and a set of tasks which they have to satisfy, we consi...
