Abstract

This paper presents ongoing work on the implementation of the DiArg argumentation-based reasoning engine that focuses on automating sequential argumentation for inquiry and deliberation dialogues. The engine uses abstract argumentation in its core and implements a meta-layer to support argument context and enforce the consistency of inferences in compliance with the cautious monotony and reference independence principles. In addition, DiArg can enforce expansion properties of an argumentation framework w.r.t. its predecessors in an argumentation framework sequence.
