Abstract:

An agent architecture supports the two forms of
deliberation used by human agents. The work is founded on the
two forms of rationality described by the two Nobel Laureates
Friedrich Hayek and Vernon Smith. Cartesian, constructivist
rationalism leads to game theory, decision theory and logical
models. Ecological rationalism leads to deliberative actions
that are derived from agents’ prior interactions and are not
designed; i.e., they are strictly emergent. This paper aims to
address the scant attention paid by the multiagent systems
community to the predominant form of deliberation used by mankind.
