dc.description.abstract | Reconfigurable multi-agent systems consist of a set of autonomous
agents, with integrated interaction capabilities that feature opportunistic
interaction. Agents seemingly reconfigure their interactions
interfaces by forming collectives, and interact based on mutual interests.
Finding ways to design and analyse the behaviour of these
systems is a vigorously pursued research goal. We propose a model
checker, named R-CHECK, to allow reasoning about these systems
both from an individual- and a system- level. R-CHECK also permits
reasoning about interaction protocols and joint missions. R-CHECK
supports a high-level input language with symbolic semantics, and
provides a modelling convenience for interaction features such as
reconfiguration, coalition formation, self-organisation, etc. | en_US |
