Abstract: Implementations of systems based on distributed agent architectures require an agent communications language that has a clearly defined semantics. Without one, neither agents nor developers can be sure what another agent's commitment to perform a task means (to name just one speech act). This paper demonstrates that a semantics for an agent communications language can be founded on the premise that interagent communications constitute a task-oriented dialogue in which agents are building,...
