On top of the simpler ability to interact, open MAS must include mechanisms for their agents to reach agreements by taking into account their social context. Argumentation provides MAS with a framework that assures a ...
In agent societies, agents perform complex tasks that require different levels of intelligence and give rise to interactions among them. From these interactions, conflicts of opinion can arise, specially when MAS become ...
The capability of reaching agreements is a necessary feature that large computer systems where agents interoperate must include. In these systems, agents represent self-motivated entities that have a social context, including ...
Starting from the idea that the
social context of agents determines the way in which agents can argue and reach agreements, this context
should have a decisive influence in the computational representation of arguments. ...
The development of powerful techniques for proving termination of rewriting modulo a set of equational axioms is essential when dealing with rewriting logic-based programming languages like CafeOBJ, Maude, ELAN, OBJ, etc. ...
