....(b) Helping disposition. An agent may be influenced by another to adopt a mental attitude simply because it intends to contribute to the welfare of the latter [53] c) Trust. An agent may be influenced by another to adopt a mental attitude merely on the strength of its confidence in the latter [41]. d) Persuasion. An agent may be influenced to adopt another agent s mental attitude via a process of bargaining, argumentation or negotiation [44, 52] Social mental shaping could be formalized also in terms of preferences. That is, an agent might be influenced either by roles or by social ....

An agent may be influenced by another to adopt a mental attitude merely on the strength of its confidence in the latter [41]. Social mental shaping could be formalized also in terms of preferences. That is, an agent might be influenced either by roles or by social relationships to adopt preferences between formulae. As in what follows we are not concerned with such a form of social influence, our focus will be only ....

..... the trust in others in forming a clan is beneficial and, moreover, trust is a useful notion for binding a group together and providing additional justification for an agent deciding to perform an action that is not of direct immediate benefit on behalf of another. We have described elsewhere [10, 11] a mechanism for agents to obtain assistance from other autonomous agents, through consideration of trust. Assistance is only obtained where it is motivationally valuable to each agent involved in the cooperative interaction. However, the approach we have developed is task based, and suffers from ....

....selection. In order to select between cooperative plans, an agent must consider the nature of those it may cooperate with; it should consider the likelihood of finding agents to assist and the likelihood that they will execute the plan successfully, i.e. their trustworthiness. We have described in [11] a mechanism for assessing the contributions contained in a plan, in terms of the risk associated with the agents who are believed capable of executing them. This assessment is combined with more traditional standard planning heuristics (such as cost and plan length) to obtain a measure for ....

....in more detail in [5] is for an agent s disposition to be represented by two values, trustIncrease and trustDecrease , which determine the proportion of current trust level to increase or decrease by respectively according to whether an interaction was successful or not. We have described in [6] a mechanism for assessing the contributions contained in a plan in terms of the risk associated with the agents who are believed capable of executing them. This assessment is combined with more traditional standard planning heuristics (such as cost and plan length) to obtain a measure for ....

....are more likely to renege on them. However, due to space constraints we do not describe how to make this choice here. Instead we simply note that this offers agents considerable flexibility in establishing cooperative activity. Having previously considered the plan selection stage in some detail [6], this paper extends that, and is specifically concerned with intention adoption, focusing in particular on plan annotation. The next section introduces the notion of cooperative plans, which require a number of agents to execute. After plan selection an agent must seek assistance from others, ....
