Abstract: . As agents move into ever more important applications, there is a natural growth in interest in techniques
for synthesizing multiagent systems. We describe an approach for engineering the coordination requirements
of a multiagent system based on an analysis of conversation instances extracted from usage scenarios. This
approach exploits the notion of Dooley graphs that were recently introduced to the multiagent systems community
from the linguistics and discourse analysis literature. We show... (Update)
