Abstract
While several BDI logics have been proposed in the area of Agent Programming, it is not clear how these logics are connected to the agent programs they are supposed to specify. More yet, the reasoning problems in these logics, being based on modal logic, are not tractable in general, limiting their usage to tackle real-world problems. In this work, we use of Dynamic Preference Logic to provide a semantic foundation to BDI agent programming languages and investigate tractable expressive fragments of this logic to reason about agent programs. With that, we aim to provide a way of implementing semantically grounded agent programming languages with tractable reasoning cycles.
