Situated modeling of epistemic puzzles

Abstract

Situation theory is a mathematical theory of meaning introduced by Jon Barwise and John Perry. It has evoked great theoretical interest and motivated the framework of a few `computational' systems. PROSIT is the pioneering work in this direction. Unfortunately, there is a lack of real-life applications on these systems and this study is a preliminary attempt to remedy this de ciency. Here, we solve a group of epistemic puzzle using the constructs provided by PROSIT
