On two families of paradigms of group-solvability
Alessandro Agostini · 2003
We advance and compare two families of coalitional paradigms of solvability.A coalitional paradigm is distinguished from a "noncoalitional" paradigm primarily by its focus on what groups of agents can achieve, rather than on what individual agents can do---even if cooperating. As a criterion of group formation, our models engage a kind of pairwise, context-dependent coordination between knowledge-based "LAGs," eventually able to communicate the complete & local meaning of expressions taken from the literals of a common first-order language.
