Abstract

In this chapter, we present a formal description of the Generic/Actual Argument Model (GAAM) and develop from this some of its characteristics, practical advantages, and disadvantages. The GAAM is intended as a model to support reasoning and decision making by individuals within a reasoning community. It can be used by individuals without inference support, by individuals with varying degrees of inference support, or as a fully computational system.
