In this work we present an approach to model an action-oriented system controlled by BDI agents using a defeasible argumentation formalism to represent its knowledge. Here, our main concern will be modelling the software agents that drive the physical robots.

Signature schemes are fundamental cryptographic primitives, useful as a stand-alone application, and as a building block in the design of secure protocols and other cryptographic objects. In this thesis, we study both the uses that signature schemes find in protocols,…

After an impressive development throughout the last two decades, supported by a great
amount of research and innovation, science education seemed to be becoming a new scientific domain.
This transformation of Science Education into a specific field of research and…
