Abstract: In this article, we look at formal methods for reasoning about multi-agent systems,
with particular emphasis on the twin problems of specifying and verifying
such systems. We begin by critically reviewing several types of formalism, from
both AI and mainstream computer science, which suggest themselves as possible
candidates for the task. This review leads us to conclude that none of these formalisms
are ideal, but that a hybrid approach might be suitable. The method we
propose involves... (Update)

.... The issues surrounding the use of logics like LM to reason about DAI systems are considered at length in [23] and more briefly in [6, 25]; they will not, therefore, be discussed again here. Instead, we simply note that LM can be used in both the specification and...
