Introducing a Tool for Concurrent Argumentation

Agent-based modelling languages naturally implement concurrency for handling complex interactions between communicating agents. On the other hand, the field of Argumentation Theory lacks of instruments to explicitly model concurrent behaviours. In this paper we introduce a tool for dealing with concurrent argumentation processes and that can be used, for instance, to model agents debating, negotiating and persuading. The tool implements operations as expansion, contraction and revision. We also provide a web interface exposing the functionalities of the tool and allowing for a more careful study of concurrent processes.
