I n the early nineties Dung and others showed that a rgumentation is also very suitable as a general fr amework for relating different nonmonotonic logics . Finally, in recent years argument-based logics h ave been used to facilitate reasoning and communic ation in multi-agent systems. Argumentation can b e studied on its own, but it also has interesting relations with other topics, such as dialogue and decision. For instance, argumentation is an essent ial component of such phenomena as fact finding in vestigations, computer supported collaborative wor k, negotiation, legal procedure, and online disput e mediation. However, only recently researchers ha ve begun to explore the use of argumentation in th ese contexts. For more information, see http://ww w.cs.sfu.ca/NMR2010/NMR_2010/Argument,_Dialog_and_ Decision.html. We invite submissions of original research on all topics related to the logical stud y of argumentation and its connections with decisi on and dialogue, in particular the study of argume nt-based logics and the development of argument-ba sed logical systems in formal models of multi-agen t reasoning and interaction.

Sin ce the work of John Pollock, Ronald Loui and other s in the eighties, argumentation has proven to be successful in nonmonotonic logic. In the early nin eties Dung and others showed that argumentation is also very suitable as a general framework for rel ating different nonmonotonic logics. Finally, in r ecent years argument-based logics have been used t o facilitate reasoning and communication in multi- agent systems.
