As a philosophical or didactic device, it is chiefly associated in the West with the Socratic dialogue as developed by Plato, but antecedents are also found in other traditions including Indian literature.

- QUOTE: Agents are engaged in dialogues according to goals they can satisfy by talking to other agents (Cohen and Perrault 1979), (Perrault and Allen 1980). A dialogue is a sequence of utterances, produced by agents based on their beliefs, in order to reach intended states of facts by causing other agents to change their beliefs and thus also their intentions. Our goal is to model this interaction between beliefs, intentions, and utterances. The ability to predict decisions resulting from the dialogue is used as a performance measure.

- QUOTE: In this paper we explore a new theory of discourse structure that stresses the role of purpose and processing in discourse. In this theory, discourse structure is composed of three separate but interrelated components: the structure of the sequence of utterances (called the linguistic structure), a structure of purposes (called the intentional structure), and the state of focus of attention (called the attentional state). The linguistic structure consists of segments of the discourse into which the utterances naturally aggregate.
