Existing agent communication languages, such as KQML, assume logically sound inference methods. Unfortunately, induction is logically unsound.

However, in a multi-agent system, hypotheses learnt by one agent can directly contradict knowledge held by another.

Atomicity is an important property for concurrent software, as it provides a stronger guarantee against errors caused by unanticipated thread interactions than race-freedom does. However, concurrency control in general is tricky to get right because current techniques are too low-level and error-prone. With the introduction of multicore processors, the problems are compounded. Consequently, a new software abstraction is gaining popularity to take care of concurrency control and the enforcing of atomicity properties, called atomic sections.

The inference of such models can be guided by two priors: sparsity and non-stationarity.

Apparently, such estimators cannot be made more efficient by using sample based classical methods.
