Abstract: In this paper, we introduce the Multi-Agent Protocol (MAP) language which expresses dialogues in Multi-Agent Systems. MAP defines precisely the pattern of message exchange that occurs between the agents, though it is independent of the actual rational processes and message-content. This approach makes MAP applicable to a wide range of di#erent agent architectures, e.g. reactive, proactive, and deductive agent systems. (Update)
