A Concurrent Language for Negotiation and Debate with Argumentation

This paper summarises the main results obtained within my Ph.D. thesis where I studied argumentation from the point of view of dynamics, focusing, in particular, in the ability to manage the evolution of information. I considered different aspects of argumentation and devised theoretical and practical tools useful for developing argumentation-based applications in the context of multi-agent systems, where complex interactions between agents need to be modelled and handled.
