		<description><![CDATA[The field of Affective Computing has achieved great advances in Artificial Emotional Intelligence, the artificial counterpart of Emotional Intelligence [1]. Reacting emotionally according to the human emotions perceived through observation and dialog has been achieved. However, there are two key points that, to the best of my knowledge, these proposals are ignoring:

		<description><![CDATA[Coordination under the assumption of sharing information about Trust and Reputation might be formalised as a Interactive Partial Observable Markov Decision Process (I-POMDP).
&#8220;I-POMDPs generalize POMDPs to handle the presence of, and interaction with, other agents. This is done by including the types of the other agents into the state space and then expressing a belief [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Decentralised coordination under partial observability (formalised as Decentralised Partial Observable Markov Decision Process (Dec-POMDP)) is proven to be computationally intractable [1].
Although increasing the number of assumptions such problems may be solved even in polynomial time [1], norms may reduce both the (valid) action and (valid) state space thus reducing convergence time of such algorithms.
Thus, not [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Institutional Robotics is a new view of an old topic. The idea that robots may be regulated by laws (or norms) was extended by Isaac Asimov&#8217; sci-fi books in the mid of 20th century.
In the 90s, Philosophy Professor John Searle contributed with the idea of Social Reality, i.e. there exist brute facts, as the height [...]]]></description>

As (almost) everything may be represented and implemented by semantic rules, one may call them &#8220;semantic technologies&#8221;. However, it is not very specific as we cannot give meaning to everything in short term. Then, accepting the specific name, we accept the research is [...]]]></description>
