Abstract

This paper describes a platform for testing automated argumentation strategies for agents. It is a continuation of the discussion about the Arguing Agents Competition (AAC). The second version of the AAC platform is introduced, including the architecture and the capabilities of the platform, the currently available engine and an automated strategy for the dialogue game.

The argumentation and some of the formalizations for the arguments and dialogues are briefly presented.
