Abstract By moving from a suggestive example, the paper analyzes how information flows among agents involved in a deliberation. By interchanging information, agents become aware of details, draw the attention of the group to some issues, perform inferences and announce what they know. The proposed framework, based on the paradigm of dynamic epistemic logic, captures how knowledge results from step-wise multi-agent interaction.
