Abstract: We extend the decision-theoretic principle of maximization of expected utility, previously used to compute the utility of purely communicative acts, to include all actions that are aimed at changing the state of knowledge of the other agents involved. These actions are called knowledgeoriented actions (KOA's), and, in general, may contain nonverbal as well as verbal components. To compute the value of candidate KOA's we use the the transformation of knowledge resulting from the information... (Update)
