Structuring Social Practices

Abstract

In this thesis I will take a look at social practices using a model proposed by Dignum and Dignum [3]. With this model I will delve deeper in a single practice and look for possible inheritance when zoomed in. In the subsequent section that I will try to make a structure for a single practice going from an abstract level to a concrete practice and I will finally look at relations between different practices and how they influence each other. This is all done to start building a foundation from where others can build upon in an attempt to make a multi agent system which can survive in a social practice.
