Abstract
There are mainly two research directions for the dynamic of argumentation: revision and enforcement. The former studies how the semantics of an argumentation framework changes when the framework is updated, while the later studies how to enforce a given status of arguments by updating the argumentation framework. In the second direction, little attention has been paid to the problem of providing general rules for updating an argumentation framework aiming to enforce an extension of arguments. In this paper, we address this problem by a notion of characterizing the updated argumentation framework with respect to a given set of arguments.

Notes
- 1.
Single-assigned semantics define only one extension. The opposite is multi-assigned semantics which define more than one extension.
