A Formal Characterization of Relevant Information in Multi-Agent Systems

Abstract

This paper studies cooperation in multi-agent systems. In particular, we focus on the notion of relevance underlying cooperation. Given an agent who has some information need, we characterize pieces of information that are relevant to it. This characterization is done in a multi-modal logic. Finally, we give a formal definition for cooperation.
