Combining modal logics for dynamic and multi-agent systems

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Modern computer software systems are required to operate in complex dynamic environments and to handle functioning of highly sensitive (security and safety-critical) organizations in government and commerce. Typical applications include air-traffic control systems, telecommunication networks, and banking systems. To ensure robustness, computationally predictable behaviour and trustworthiness of these systems, their designs and implementations must be formally well grounded. This is an important but difficult challenge. This project will systematically develop a framework by combining modal-logics to adequately capture and reason about temporal, epistemic and social aspects of dynamic and multi-agent systems. The combined logics would be evaluated on practical applications.
