AbstractA long and lasting problem in agent research has been to close the gap between agent logics and agent programming frameworks. The main reason for this problem of establishing a link between agent logics and agent programming frameworks is identified and explained by the fact that agent programming frameworks have not incorporated the concept of a `declarative goal’. Instead, such frameworks have focused mainly on plans or `goals-to-do’ instead of the end goals to be realised which are also called `goals-to-be’. In this paper, a new programming language called GOAL is introduced which incorporates such declarative goals. The notion of a `commitment strategy’ - one of the main theoretical insights due to agent logics, which explains the relation between beliefs and goals - is used to construct a computational semantics for GOAL. Finally, a proof theory for proving properties of GOAL agents is introduced. Thus, we offer a complete theory of agent programming in the sense that our theory provides both for a programming framework and a programming logic for such agents. An example program is proven correct by using this programming logic.
