Abstract: A number of agent-oriented programming systems are based on a framework of beliefs, desires and intentions (BDI) and more explicitly on the BDI logic of Rao and Georgeff. In this logic, goals are a consistent set of desires, and this property is fundamental to the semantics of the logic. However, implementations based on this framework typically have no explicit representation of either desires or goals, and consequently no mechanisms for checking consistency. In this paper we address this gap... (Update)
