Iterative, Incremental and Evolving EAF-Based Negotiation Process

Internally agents may use argumentation for both (i) reasoning about what to believe (i.e. theoretical reasoning) and/or (ii) for deciding what to do (i.e. practical reasoning). Despite existing differences between both, from a standpoint of first-personal reflection, a set of considerations for and against a particular conclusion are drawn on both [1]. On the other hand, concerning the types of agents’ dialogues (e.g. Deliberation, Negotiation, Persuasion, Inquiry, Information-seeking dialogues), while a clear distinction between each one exist, most of the agents’ dialogue occurrences involve mixtures of dialogue types.
