Abstract
Dialogue and argumentation are basic components of MAS [10], and many models for them have been studied so far (e. g., [3], [8] for argumentation, and [6], [9], [5], [2] for dialogue systems). Those two are closely related to each other [13], and apparently the latter seems to be a special case of the former or one aspect of dialogue. However, it is not so clear how they are related to each other or simply how dialogue is different from argumentation. In this paper, we will consider an intrinsic relationship between them from a formal perspective.
