Abstract

We discuss a semantics of dynamic creation of arguments when knowledge from different agents are combined. This arises when an agent does not know the other agent’s knowledge and therefore, the agent cannot predict which arguments are attacked and which counter-arguments are used in order to attack the arguments. In this paper, we provide a more general framework for such argumentation system than previous proposed framework and provide a computational method how to decide acceptability of argument by logic programming if both agents are eager to give all the arguments.
