✦ Synopsis


Dynamics are an important aspect of agent models. Control of dynamics requires specific methods of specification that have their own specific semantics. This paper addresses specification and semantics of dynamics and control in component-based agent models. Specification is based on a dedicated formal design specification language for agent models. Semantics of the dynamics are defined using temporal traces with composite states. It is shown in what manner control aspects can be specified, and what their semantics is in terms of the temporal traces. An agent model for controlled diagnostic reasoning processes is used to illustrate the approach.

Fluidized bed drying finds important applications in the chemical industry on account of the following advantages: a) rapid exchange of heat and mass between drying media and particles yields the desired product quality and reduces the overall drying time and b) easy handling of feed and product. Th
