We consider the monadic boundedness problem for least fixed points over FO formulae as a decision problem: Given a formula ϕ(X, x), positive in X, decide whether there is a unif...
Design space exploration is central to embedded system design. Typically this is a multi-objective search problem, where performance, power, area etc. are the different optimizati...
In this research, we re-arrange FIPA’s ACL performatives to form a subsumption lattice (ontology) and apply a theory of social commitments to achieve a simplified and observable...
Abstract. Lately, overhearing has gained interest in monitoring multi-agent settings. Previous investigations provided an extensive set of techniques using overhearing. However, mo...
We present a performance-oriented refinement approach that refines a perfectly synchronous communication model onto Network-on-Chip (NoC) communication. We first identify four bas...
