This paper proposes a new framework for modeling abstract argumentation graphs that incorporates the order of enunciation of arguments. The traditional approach to abstract argumentation frameworks represents dialogues statically, without considering the order in which arguments are presented. By incorporating this information, the proposed framework can deduce a unique outcome for each dialogue, known as an extension. The authors establish several properties of their framework, including termination and correctness, and discuss two notions of completeness. One key innovation is a modification to the transformation process based on a “last enunciated last updated” strategy that verifies the second form of completeness.

This paper helps us understand how people argue with each other. When we write down an argument, we usually just list out all the points being made, without worrying about when those points were actually said. But this can be important! The order in which arguments are presented can affect the outcome of the conversation. This new framework for modeling abstract argumentation graphs takes that into account and shows how it can help us understand what will happen at the end of a dialogue.
