  • Abstract
    Much work have been done in the recent years on the dependence theory and on building social reasoning mechanisms in multi-agent systems. In this paper we are interested in time, which is a crucial dimension for multi-agent systems having to act in continuously changing environments. We define both temporal dependence networks and temporal social reasoning mechanisms for dynamic multi-agent systems. We illustrate these aspects through an application of supervision of a fleet of buses
