Abstract :
The author presents a model to characterize the information requirements for multiple-agent decision-making. This model incorporates an epistemic system, consisting of a knowledge corpus, a system of informational valuation, and a system of truth valuation, to formulate decision criteria. In a multiple-agent environment, agents may also use information from the epistemic systems of cognate agents to deliberate and make coordinated decisions
