Abstract

In this paper, we give some elements about agent-oriented relevance. For that, we define a new modal operator \(R_a^Q \) so that \(R_a^Q \varphi \) means that ϕ is relevant for agent a concerning the request Q. We discuss properties of this new operator, as well as its extensions and limits.
