Policy Modeling and Reasoning in Sociotechnical Systems (Dagstuhl Seminar 25271)

Authors: Marina De Vos, Nicoletta Fornara, Munindar P. Singh, Leon van der Torre, and Jessica Woodgate

Published in: Dagstuhl Reports, Volume 15, Issue 6 (2026)


Abstract
This report documents the program and the outcomes of Dagstuhl Seminar 25271 "Policy Modeling and Reasoning in Sociotechnical Systems". This seminar brought together researchers from academia and industry who are interested in studying the intersection between computer science, philosophy, logic, ethics, and law to discuss policy modelling and reasoning in a world where computers and humans need to work together. After lightning talks, two invited talks, and an open space topic gathering activity, we settled on four topics for deeper discussion in working groups, interspersed by primer talks from the various communities. The four topics were: 1) Concepts: What are the underlying aspects of this interdisciplinary field, and can they be defined consistently? 2) Agentic AI: How can we enable agents to interact and reason with human users through large language models? 3) Standardisation: How can we facilitate data sharing and compliance in international work with competing business interests? 4) Coevolution: How can we make sure that sociotechnical systems evolve with the societies they operate in? This report provides the abstracts of the talks, including participants' lightning talks, the two invited talks, and four primers, along with short reports from each working group detailing their discussions, including challenges and future opportunities.

Published in: Dagstuhl Follow-Ups, Volume 4, Normative Multi-Agent Systems (2013)


Abstract
This chapter takes a closer look at computational logic approaches for the design, verification and the implementation of normative multi-agent systems. After a short overview of existing formalisms, architectures and implementation languages, an overview of current research challenges is provided.

LOG-IDEAH: ASP for Architectonic Asset Preservation

Authors: Viviana Novelli, Marina De Vos, Julian Padget, and Dina D’Ayala

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 17, Technical Communications of the 28th International Conference on Logic Programming (ICLP'12) (2012)


Abstract
To preserve our cultural heritage, it is important to preserve our architectonic assets, comprising buildings, their decorations and the spaces they encompass. In some geographical areas, occasional natural disasters, specifically earthquakes, damage these cultural assets. Perpetuate is a European Union funded project aimed at establishing a methodology for the classification of the damage to these buildings, expressed as "collapse mechanisms". Structural engineering research has identified 17 different collapse mechanisms for masonry buildings damaged by earthquakes. Following established structural engineering practice, paper-based decisions trees have been specified to encode the recognition process for each of the various collapse mechanisms. In this paper, we report on how answer set programming has been applied to the construction of a machine-processable representation of these collapse mechanisms as an alternative for these decision-trees and their subsequent verification and application to building records from L'Aquila, Algiers and Rhodes. As a result, we advocate that structural engineers do not require the time-consuming and error-prone method of decisions trees, but can instead specify the properties of collapse mechanisms directly as an answer set program.
