Abstract
This paper explores the applicability of the new paradigm of Multi-dimensional Dynamic Logic Programming to represent an agent’s view of the combination of societal knowledge dynamics. The representation of a dynamic society of agents is the core of \( \mathcal{M}\mathcal{I}\mathcal{N}\varepsilon \mathcal{R}\mathcal{V}\mathcal{A} \) [11], an agent architecture and system designed with the intention of providing a common agent framework based on the unique strengths of Logic Programming, hat allows the combination of several non-monotonic knowledge representation and reasoning mechanisms developed in recent years.
