This edited volume presents a comprehensive history of modern logic from the Middle Ages through the end of the twentieth century. In addition to a history of symbolic logic, the contributors also examine developments in the philosophy of logic and philosophical logic in modern times. The book begins with chapters on late medieval developments and logic and philosophy of logic from Humanism to Kant. The following chapters focus on the emergence of symbolic logic with special emphasis on the relations between logic and mathematics, on the one hand, and on logic and philosophy, on the other. This discussion is completed by a chapter on the themes of judgment and inference from 1837-1936. The v...
The idea of a FAABS workshop was first conceived in 1998 at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, while the Agent Technology Development Group in the Advanced Architectures and Automation Branch (Code 588) was developing a prototype agent community to automate satellite ground operations. While developing this system, several race conditions arose within and between agents. Due to the complexity of the agents and the communications between them, it was decided that a formal approach was needed to specify the agents and the communications between them, so that the system could be checked for additional errors. A formal model of the inter-agent communications was developed, with the expectatio...
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 14th European Conference on Logics in Artificial Intelligence, JELIA 2014, held in Funchal, Madeira, Portugal, in September 2014. The 35 full papers and 14 short papers included in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 121 submissions. They are organized in topical sections named: description logics; automated reasoning; logics for uncertain reasoning; non-classical logics; answer-set programming; belief revision; dealing with inconsistency in ASP and DL; reason about actions and causality; system descriptions; short system descriptions; and short papers. The book also contains 4 full paper invited talks.
As a vibrant area of computer science which continues to develop rapidly, AI is a field in which fresh ideas and new perspectives are of particular interest. This book presents the proceedings of the 8th European Starting AI Researcher Symposium (STAIRS 2016), held as a satellite event of the 22nd European Conference on Artificial Intelligence (ECAI) in The Hague, the Netherlands, in August 2016. What is unique about the STAIRS symposium is that the principal author of every submitted paper must be a young researcher who either does not yet hold a Ph.D., or who has obtained their Ph.D. during the year before the submission deadline for papers. The book contains 21 accepted papers; Part I inc...
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Third German Conference on Multiagent Systems Technologies, MATES 2005, held in Koblenz, Germany, in September 2005 – co-located with the 28th German Conference on Artificial Intelligence (KI 2005). The 14 revised full papers presented together with 5 revised short papers and 5 poster papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 54 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on workflows and group interaction, reasoning about utility, the dynamics of knowledge, methodology and simulation, agent tools and agent education.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the 10th International Workshop on Declarative Agent Languages and Technologies, DALT 2012, held in conjunction with the 11th International Joint Conference on Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems (AAMAS 2012) at Valencia, Spain, in June 2012. The volume contains 13 revised selected presented at DALT 2012.The papers cover the following topics: declarative languages and technologies, computational logics, declarative approaches to engineering agent-based systems, models of business interactions among agents, and models of trust, commitments, and reputation for agents.
This paperback edition of the first of the twelve volumes of A Treatises of Legal Philosophy and General Jurisprudence, serves as an introduction to the first-ever multivolume treatment of all important issues in legal philosophy and general jurisprudence, consisting of a five-volume theoretical part and a six-volume historical part. The theoretical part covers the main topics of contemporary debate. The historical volumes trace the development of legal thought from ancient Greek times through the twentieth century. All volumes are edited by the renowned theorist Enrico Pattaro.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the Third International Workshop on Programming Multi-Agent Systems, ProMAS 2005, held in Utrecht, The Netherlands in July 2005 as an associated event of AAMAS 2005, the main international conference on autonomous agents and multi-agent systems. The 14 revised full papers presented together with 2 invited articles are organized in topical sections on multi-agent techniques and issues, multi-agent programming, and multi-agent platforms and organization.
