Practical Normative Reasoning: Models and Challenges
Systems of autonomous and self-interested agents interacting to achieve individual and collective goals may exhibit undesirable or unexpected properties if left unconstrained. Norms have been proposed as a means of defining and enforcing societal constraints by using the deontic concepts of obligations, permissions and prohibitions to describe what must, may and should not be done, respectively. Although much effort has been devoted to the logical aspects of norm semantics, as well as on the specification of virtual organisations regulated by norms, until recently comparatively little research has focused on the algorithms driving agent behaviour when operating in a norm-regulated society. In this talk, I will provide an overview of the recent research on normative reasoning for multiagent systems and point to current challenges that researchers on norm-driven behaviour are tackling.
