Abstract

In this contribution, we study a system for argumentation-based backward planning built on t-DeLP, a temporal extension of Garcia and Simari’s argumentation system known as defeasible logic programming framework (DeLP). In t-DeLP programs, temporal facts and defeasible temporal rules combine into arguments, which compare against each other to decide which of their conclusions are to prevail. We present a planning system by introducing actions (as in temporal planning) into this logical framework, and then study centralized algorithms for backward planning in scenarios involving multiple executing agents.
