Abstract

The notion of cooperation in computer science has a strong rational connotation. A cooperative system is composed of cognitive individuals which have explicit knowledge about their users and other individuals of the group, have propositional attitudes, and are capable of negotiating agreements and making contracts. We are concerned with the design of cooperative robots; and the traditional conception of cooperation is not easily applicable to Robotics not only because of the limitations of Robotics but also because the traditional concept of cooperation does not explain its own pre-requisites and hypotheses. This paper outlines the concept of situated cooperation in the context of situated agents, particularly robots.
