Agent-Based Defeasible Control in Dynamic Environments
Preserved Fulltext
This is illustrated here by verifying the class of single agents acting in dynamic environments. ...
Also, the paper contributes to establishing the library by proposing a reusable system of generic co-ordination properties for applications of agents acting in dynamic environments. ...
Agents that can perceive and act in a dynamic environment are quite common. An example is an agent for process control (e.g. in a chemical factory). ...
