Model checking agent programming languages

LA Dennis, M Fisher, MP Webster… - Automated software …, 2012 - Springer
In this paper we describe a verification system for multi-agent programs. This is the first
comprehensive approach to the verification of programs developed using programming …

Agent systems verification: systematic literature review and mapping

NA Bakar, A Selamat - Applied Intelligence, 2018 - Springer
Agent systems are distributed systems consist of agents that autonomously interact to each
other in an environment to perform tasks and achieve goals. Performing verification is …

[HTML][HTML] Parameterised verification for multi-agent systems

P Kouvaros, A Lomuscio - Artificial Intelligence, 2016 - Elsevier
We study the problem of verifying role-based multi-agent systems, where the number of
components cannot be determined at design time. We give a semantics that captures …

Programming the social computer

D Robertson, F Giunchiglia - … Transactions of the Royal …, 2013 - royalsocietypublishing.org
The aim of 'programming the global computer'was identified by Milner and others as one of
the grand challenges of computing research. At the time this phrase was coined, it was …

Automated verification of multi-agent programs

RH Bordini, LA Dennis, B Farwer… - 2008 23rd IEEE/ACM …, 2008 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
In this paper, we show that the flexible model-checking of multi-agent systems, implemented
using agent-oriented programming languages, is viable thus paving the way for the …

[HTML][HTML] Combined model checking for temporal, probabilistic, and real-time logics

S Konur, M Fisher, S Schewe - Theoretical Computer Science, 2013 - Elsevier
Abstract Model checking is a well-established technique for the formal verification of
concurrent and distributed systems. In recent years, model checking has been extended and …

An epistemic logic for formalizing group dynamics of agents

S Costantini, A Formisano, V Pitoni - Interaction Studies, 2022 - jbe-platform.com
In the multi-agent setting, it is relevant to model group dynamics of agents, and logic has
proved a good tool to do so. We propose an epistemic logic, L-DINF-E, that allows one to …

Unbounded model checking for alternating-time temporal logic

M Kacprzak, W Penczek - Proceedings of the Third International …, 2004 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
This paper deals with the problem of verification of game-like structures by means of
symbolic model checking. Alternating-time Temporal Logic (ATL) is used for expressing …

[PDF][PDF] Bounded and unbounded verification of rnn-based agents in non-deterministic environments

M Hosseini, A Lomuscio - Proceedings of the 2023 International …, 2023 - southampton.ac.uk
We consider closed-loop Agent-Environment Systems (AESs), where the agent is controlled
by a Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) with ReLU activations in a non-deterministic …

Bounded model checking for knowledge and real time

A Lomuscio, W Penczek, B Woźna - Artificial Intelligence, 2007 - Elsevier
We present TECTLK, a logic to specify knowledge and real time in multi-agent systems. We
show that the TECTLK model checking problem is decidable, and we present an algorithm …
