Abstract

Recent work in the design of agent interaction protocols has focused on applications involving dialectical argumentation. Yet no widely-accepted standard set of locutions exist for such argument. Drawing on both speech act theory and the philosophy of communicative action, we present an interaction protocol comprising five locutions we consider necessary for argumentation.
