Designers of autonomous agents, whether in physical or virtual environments, need to express nondeterminisim, failure, and parallelism in behaviors, as well as accounting for synchronous coordination between agents. Behavior Trees are a…

We define a novel calculus that combines a call-by-name functional core with session-based communication primitives. We develop a typing discipline that guarantees both normalisation of expressions and progress of processes and that…

Policies are designed to distinguish between correct and incorrect actions; they are types. But badly typed actions may cause not compile errors, but financial and reputational harm We demonstrate how even the most complex ABAC policies can…

We propose a calculus for asynchronous multiparty sessions where input choices with different senders are allowed in processes. We present a type system that accepts such input races provided they do not hinder lock-freedom.

We develop a qualitative model of decision making with two aims: to describe how people make simple decisions and to enable computer programs to do the same. Current approaches based on Planning or Decisions Theory either ignore uncertainty…
