Abstract

This article presents a taxonomy of social spaces distinguishing five basic types: personal space, activity space, affordance space, territory, and penetrated space. The respective space-constituting situations and the mereotopological structure for each social space type are specified. We show how permissions for actions of agents in social spaces can be modeled using the situations calculus. Specifications of social spaces and permissions build the fundament for socially aware action planning.
