Social and intentional behaviours appear as two main components of the agent paradigm. Methods of conventional software engineering do not seem to be appropriate to gain a full kno...
With single-electron tunneling (SET) technology it is possible to build electronic circuits with extreme low power properties. These SET circuits must therefore operate in the sin...
Abstract. We propose a theory of up-to techniques for proofs by coinduction, in the setting of complete lattices. This theory improves over existing results by providing a way to c...
The No-Free-Lunch theorems (NFLTs) are criticized for being too general to be of any relevance to the real world scenario. This paper investigates, both formally and empirically, ...
A logic of conditional preferences is defined, with a language which allows the compact representation of certain kinds of conditional preference statements, a semantics and a pro...
