Designing Normative Behaviour Via Landmarks
نویسندگان
چکیده
In highly regulated environments, where a set of norms defines accepted behaviour, protocols provide a way to reduce complexity by giving direct, step by step guidelines for behaviour, as long as the protocols comply with the norms. In this work we propose a formal framework to design a protocol from a normative specification. In order to be able to connect (descriptive) norms with (operational) protocols, an intermediate level is created by the use of landmarks.

متن کاملRunning head: mothers’ complementary feeding decision-making Predicting mothers’ decisions to introduce complementary feeding at 6 months. An investigation using an extended theory of planned behaviour
In Australia and other developed countries there is poor adherence to guidelines recommending the introduction of complementary feeding to infants at 6 months of age. We aimed to investigate, via adopting a theory of planned behaviour framework and incorporating additional normative and demographic influences, mothers’ complementary feeding intentions and behaviour. Participants were 375 primip...

متن کاملNormative Agents in Health Care: Uses and challenges
The use of Multi-Agent Systems (MAS) in health-care domains is increasing. Such Agent-mediated Medical Systems are designed to manage complex tasks and have the potential to adapt gracefully to unexpected events. However, in that kind of systems the issues of privacy and security (in the access to patient records), safety and soundness (of the individual agent behaviours and the multiagent syst...
متن کاملNorms Evaluation through Reputation Mechanisms for BDI Agents
Open multiagent systems are systems populated with autonomous agents whose intentions are unknown. Due to this uncertainty, reputation mechanisms arise as a key technology when designing such systems. These mechanisms endow agents with the capability to reason about the behaviour of their potential partners regarding certain criteria, for instance, a particular norm. Although normative systems ...
