Defence applications are subject to some of the world's most demanding requirements for reliability, controllability, security, flexibility, and synchronization. The evolution of defence processes towards network enabled systems and rapid deployment scenarios, is creating an urgent demand for highly adaptive and autonomous information support systems. In particular there are requirements for reduced manpower in support roles, autonomous IT infrastructures, and automated logistics and planning, all of which provide significant scope for an agent-oriented solution set. The workshop addresses...

This book constitutes the refereed post-proceedings of the International Workshop on Agents, Norms and Institutions for Regulated Multiagent Systems, ANIREM 2005, and the International Workshop on Organizations in Multi-Agent Systems, OOOP 2005, held in Utrecht, The Netherlands, July 2005. This is the first volume in a new series on issues in Coordination, Organizations, Institutions and Norms (COIN) in multi-agent systems. Topics include modeling, analyzing and programming organizations and more.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the 4th International Workshop on Declarative Agent Languages and Technologies, DALT 2006, held in Japan in May 2006. This was an associated event of AAMAS 2006, the main international conference on autonomous agents and multi-agent systems. The 12 revised full papers presented together with one invited talk and three invited papers were carefully selected for inclusion in the book.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Second International Conference on High Performance Embedded Architectures and Compilers, HiPEAC 2007, held in Ghent, Belgium, in January 2007. The 19 revised full papers presented together with one invited keynote paper were carefully reviewed and selected from 65 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections.

Universal Logic is not a new logic, but a general theory of logics, considered as mathematical structures. The name was introduced about ten years ago, but the subject is as old as the beginning of modern logic. It was revived after the flowering of thousands of new logics during the last thirty years: there was a need for a systematic theory of logics to put some order in this chaotic multiplicity.
The present book contains recent works on universal logic by first-class researchers from all around the world. The book is full of new and challenging ideas that will guide the future of...

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 9th International Conference on Developments in Language Theory, DLT 2005, held in Palermo, Italy in July 2005.

The 29 revised full papers presented together with 5 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 73 submissions. All important issues in language theory are addressed including grammars, acceptors, and transducers for strings frees, graphs, and arrays; efficient text algorithms; algebraic theories for automata and languages; variable-length codes; symbolic dynamics; decision problems; relations to complexity...

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 20th International Conference on Automated Deduction, CADE-20, held in Tallinn, Estonia, in July 2005.

The 25 revised full papers and 5 system descriptions presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 78 submissions. All current aspects of automated deduction are addressed, ranging from theoretical and methodological issues to presentation and evaluation of theorem provers and logical reasoning systems.

Formal methods have been applied successfully to the verification of medium-sized programs in protocol and hardware design. However, their application to the development of large systems requires more emphasis on specification, modelling and validation techniques supporting the concepts of reusability and modifiability, and their implementation in new extensions of existing programming languages.

This book presents revised tutorial lectures given by invited speakers at the Third International Symposium on Formal Methods for Components and Objects, FMCO 2004, held in Leiden, The...
