Abstract. Oracle separation methods are used in cryptography to rule out blackbox reductions between cryptographic primitives. It is sufficient to find an oracle relative to whic...
Multi-Agent Systems are a promising way of dealing with large complex problems. However, it is not yet clear just how much complexity or pre-existing structure individual agents m...
Agents are intended to interact in open systems where the knowledge about others (reputation) is incomplete and uncertain. Also, this knowledge about other agents is subjective si...
A fundamental task in multi-agent systems is matchmaking, which is to retrieve and classify service descriptions of agents that (best) match a given service request. Several approa...
Constant propagation (CP) is one of the most widely used optimizations in practice (cf. [9]). Intuitively, it addresses the problem of statically detecting whether an expression al...
