Social commitments are developed for multi-agent systems according to the current practice in law regarding contract formation and breach. Deafeasible commitments are used to provide a useful link between multi-agent systems and legal doctrines. The proposed model makes the commitments more expressive relative to contract law, improving the model for the life cycle of the commitments. As a cons...

Our goal is to extend agent communication languages for persuasion dialogues. We distinguish action commitments from propositional commitments, because both limit future moves, but an action commitment is fulfilled when the hearer believes that the action is performed, whereas a propositional commitment is fulfilled only when the hearer concedes to the proposition – where concessions are the ab...

power of attorney (pa) contract is among the specified contracts that are widely used in society and people’s legal relations, because on one hand, people are not compelled to directly vindicate their rights and, on the other hand, the above-mentioned contract is of high importance in lawsuits and restoring the victim’s rights in courts of law. through signing contract of pa, the attorney and t...

The theoretical virtue of parsimony values the minimizing of theoretical commitments, but theoretical commitments come in two kinds: ontological and ideological. While the ontological commitments of a theory are the entities it posits, a theory’s ideological commitments are the primitive concepts it employs. Here, I show how we can extend the distinction between quantitative and qualitative par...

Commitments are being used widely to specify interaction among autonomous agents in multiagent systems. While various formalizations for commitments and its life cycle exist, there has been little work that studies commitments in relation to each other. However, in many situations, the content and state of one commitment may render another commitment useless or even worse create conflicts. This...

Social commitments have long been recognized as an important concept for multiagent systems. We propose a rich formulation of social commitments that motivates an architecture for multiagent systems, which we dub spheres of commitment. We identify the key operations on commitments and multiagent systems. We distinguish between explicit and implicit commitments. Multiagent systems, viewed as sph...

the cinema is a phenomenon that has opened its way to the societies over the past 100 years, especially in the current era that the pleasure of visual culture has been overcome on benefit, introduced itself to mankind in different forms and formats. therefore, the film industry and producing tv and cinema programs are largely spread by taking advantage of technological growth. because this phen...

Commitment schemes are arguably among the most important and useful primitives in cryptography. According to the computational power of receivers, commitments can be classified into three possible types: computational hiding commitments, statistically hiding commitments and perfect computational commitments. The fist commitment with constant rounds had been constructed from any one-way function...
