ArgMAS 2013 - Tenth International Workshop on Argumentation in Multi-Agent Systems (ArgMAS 2013)

The main goal of ArgMAS 2013 is to bring together the community of researchers working on argumentation in multi-agent systems. The workshop will focus on the concepts, theories, methodologies, and applications of computational models of argument in creating autonomous agents and multi-agent systems. Argumentation can be abstractly defined as the formal interaction of different arguments for and against some conclusion (eg, a proposition, an action intention, a preference, etc). A single agent may use argumentation techniques to perform individual reasoning, to resolve conflicting evidence, or to decide between conflicting goals. Multiple agents may also use dialectical argumentation in order to identify and reconcile differences, through interactions such as negotiation, persuasion, and joint deliberation.
