Tractable reasoning about Agent Programming in Dynamic Preference Logic
While several BDI logics have been proposed in the area of Agent Programming,
it is not clear how these logics are connected to the agent programs they are
supposed to specify. More yet, the reasoning problems in these logics, being
based on modal logic, are not tractable in general, limiting their usage to
tackle real-world problems. In this work, we use of Dynamic Preference Logic to
provide a semantic foundation to BDI agent programming languages and
investigate tractable expressive fragments of this logic to reason about agent
programs. With that, we aim to provide a way of implementing semantically
grounded agent programming languages with tractable reasoning cycles.Comment: Published in BRACIS 201
