- Summary:
- Reasoning about knowledge - particularly the knowledge of agents who reason about the world and each other's knowledge - was once the exclusive province of philosophers and puzzle solvers. More recently, this type of reasoning has been shown to play a key role in a surprising number of contexts, from understanding conversations to the analysis of distributed computer algorithms.
