Abstract :
This work presents a framework for multiagent cooperation based on formal dialogue game in CSCD. It is a dynamic cooperation model that allows a group of agents to exchange their opinions, possibility and willingness through information seek dialogue at the beginning of cooperation, and then a potential cooperative team is formed. In the potential agent group, the joint intention for the fulfilling of the task was created by the persuasive dialogue. This model avoids the aimlessness in the task decomposition and assignment in existing CSCD systems and improves the cooperation performance. The basic idea and practical process of the model are presented and the dialogue logic based on dynamic and modal logic are discussed and used to formalize the model. Further research issues are given in the last part of the paper.
