Alternating-time dynamic logic

We propose Alternating-time Dynamic Logic (ADL) as a multi-agent variant of Dynamic Logic in which atomic programs are replaced by coalitions. In ADL, the Dynamic Logic operators are parametrised with regular expressions over coalitions and tests. Such regular expressions describe the dynamic structure of a coalition. This means that, when moving from Dynamic Logic to ADL, the focus shifts away from describing what is executed and when, toward describing who is acting and when. While Dynamic Logic provides for reasoning about complex programs, ADL facilitates reasoning about coalitions with an inner dynamic structure, socalled coordinated coalitions. The semantics for such coalitions involves partial strategies and a variety of ways to combine them. Different combinations of partial strategies give rise to different semantics for ADL. In this paper, we mainly focus on one version of the semantics but we provide a discussion on other semantic variants of ADL together with possible synt...
