Abstract
In Group Decision Making argumentation has a crucial role; we have a set of participants, with different points of view that exchange ideas or engage in a process of argumentation and counter-argumentation, negotiate, cooperate, collaborate or even discuss techniques and/or methodologies for problem solving. In this paper we propose an argumentation-based system, where intelligent agents simulates the behaviour of individuals as members of a group in a decision making process. Our agents operate in ambience intelligent environments and behave depending on rational and emotional factors.
