Abstract

The aim of this paper is to announce the release of a novel system for abstract argumentation which is based on decomposition and dynamic programming. We provide first experimental evaluations to show the feasibility of this approach.

This work has been funded by the Vienna Science and Technology Fund (WWTF) through project ICT08-028, by the Austrian Science Fund (FWF): P20704-N18, and by the Vienna University of Technology program “Innovative Ideas”.
