knowledge-based programs (KBPs) encodes the dependency of action on
by a sequence of guarded commands, and a \emph{joint
-based program} (JKBP) assigns a KBP to each agent:
use a list of guarded commands just so we can reuse this definition
others in algorithmic contexts; we would otherwise use a set as
is no problem with infinite programs or actions, and we always
the sequential structure.
a KBP for an agent cannot directly evaluate the truth of
arbitrary formula as it may depend on propositions that the agent
no certainty about. For example, a card-playing agent cannot
which cards are in the deck, despite being sure that those
her hand are not. Conversely agent $a$ can evaluate formulas of the
@{term "K φ"} as these depend only on the worlds the agent thinks
possible.
we restrict the guards of the JKBP to be boolean combinations of
emph{subjective} formulas:
›
fun subjective :: "'a ==> ('a, 'p) Kform ==> bool"where "subjective a (Kprop p) = False"
| "subjective a (Knot f) = subjective a f"
| "subjective a (Kand f g) = (subjective a f ∧ subjective a g)"
| "subjective a (Kknows a' f) = (a = a')"
| "subjective a (Kcknows as f) = (a ∈ set as)"

JKBPs in the following sections are assumed to be subjective.
syntactic restriction implies the desired semantic property, that
can evaluate a guard at an arbitrary world that is compatible with
given observation 🍋‹‹\S3› in "DBLP:journals/dc/FaginHMV97"›.

section‹Environments and Views›
text‹
label{sec:kbps-theory-environments}
previous section showed how a JKBP can be interpreted statically,
respect to a fixed Kripke structure. As we also wish to capture
agents interact, we adopt the \emph{interpreted systems} and
emph{contexts} of cite‹"FHMV:1995"›, which we term \emph{environments} cite‹"Ron:1996"›.
\emph{pre-environment} consists of the following:
begin{itemize}
item @{term "envInit"}, an arbitrary set of initial states;
item The protocol of the environment @{term "envAction"}, which
depends on the current state;
item A transition function @{term "envTrans"}, which incorporates the
environment's action and agents' behaviour into a state change; and
item A propositional evaluation function @{term "envVal"}.
end{itemize}
extend the @{term "JKBP"} locale with these constants:
represent the possible evolutions of the system as finite sequences
states, represented by a left-recursive type @{typ "'s Trace"} with
@{term "tInit s"} and @{term "t ↝ s"}, equipped with
{term "tFirst"}, @{term "tLast"}, @{term "tLength"} and @{term
tMap"} functions.
these traces requires us to determine the agents' actions
a given state. To do so we need to find an appropriate S$5_n$
for interpreting @{term "jkbp"}.
that we want the agents to make optimal use of the information
have access to, we allow these structures to depend on the entire
of the system, suitably conditioned by what the agents can
. We capture this notion of observation with a \emph{view} 🍋‹"Ron:1996"›, which is an arbitrary function of a trace:
require views to be \emph{synchronous}, i.e. that agents be able to
the time using their view by distinguishing two traces of
lengths. As we will see in the next section, this guarantees
the JKBP has an essentially unique implementation.
extend the @{term "PreEnvironment"} locale with a view:
›
locale PreEnvironmentJView =
PreEnvironment jkbp envInit envAction envTrans envVal for jkbp :: "('a, 'p, 'aAct) JKBP" and envInit :: "'s list" and envAction :: "'s ==> 'eAct list" and envTrans :: "'eAct ==> ('a ==> 'aAct) ==> 's ==> 's" and envVal :: "'s ==> 'p ==> bool"
+ fixes jview :: "('a, 's, 'tview) JointView" assumes sync: "∀a t t'. jview a t = jview a t' ⟶ tLength t = tLength t'"
text‹
two principle synchronous views are the clock view and the
-recall view which we discuss further in
S\ref{sec:kbps-theory-views}. We will later derive an agent's
view from an instantaneous observation of the global state in
S\ref{sec:kbps-environments}.
build a Kripke structure from a set of traces by relating traces
yield the same view. To obtain an S$5_n$ structure we also need a
to evaluate propositions: we apply @{term "envVal"} to the final
of a trace:
›
definition (in PreEnvironmentJView)
mkM :: "'s Trace set ==> ('a, 'p, 's Trace) KripkeStructure" where "mkM T ≡ ( worlds = T, relations = λa. { (t, t') . {t, t'} ⊆ T ∧ jview a t = jview a t' }, valuation = envVal ∘ tLast )" (*<*)

construction supplants the role of the \emph{local states} of 🍋‹"FHMV:1995"›.
following section shows how we can canonically interpret the JKBP
respect to this structure.
›
section‹Canonical Structures›
text‹
label{sec:kbps-canonical-kripke}
goal in this section is to find the canonical set of traces for a
JKBP in a particular environment. As we will see, this always
with respect to synchronous views.
inductively define an \emph{interpretation} of a JKBP with respect
an arbitrary set of traces @{term "T"} by constructing a sequence
sets of traces of increasing length:
›
fun jkbpTn :: "nat ==> 's Trace set ==> 's Trace set"(*<*)(\<open>jkbpT\<^bsub>_\<^esub>\<close>)(*>*) where "jkbpT T = { tInit s |s. s ∈ set envInit }"
| "jkbpT n T = { t ↝ envTrans eact aact (tLast t) |t eact aact. t ∈ jkbpT T ∧ eact ∈ set (envAction (tLast t)) ∧ (∀a. aact a ∈ set (jAction (mkM T) t a)) }"
text‹
model reflects the failure of any agent to provide an action as
of the entire system. In general @{term "envTrans"} may
a scheduler and communication failure models.
union of this sequence gives us a closure property:
›
definition jkbpT :: "'s Trace set ==> 's Trace set"where "jkbpT T ≡∪n. jkbpT T" (*<*)
lemma jkbpTn_length: "t ∈ jkbpTn n T ==> tLength t = n" by (induct n arbitrary: t, auto)

(*>*) text‹
say that a set of traces @{term "T"} \emph{represents} a JKBP if it
closed under @{term "jkbpT"}:
›
definition represents :: "'s Trace set ==> bool"where "represents T ≡ jkbpT T = T" (*<*)

is synchronous. The key property of such views is that the
of an epistemic formula is determined by the set of
in the model that have the same length. Lifted to @{term

, at least with synchronous views, we are justified in talking \emph{the} representation of a JKBP in a given environment. More
these results are also valid for the more general notion of
emph{provides witnesses} as shown by 🍋‹‹Lemma 7.2.4› in "FHMV:1995"› 🍋‹"DBLP:journals/dc/FaginHMV97"›: it requires only that if a
knowledge formula is false on a trace then there is a trace
the same length or less that bears witness to that effect. This is
useful generalisation in asynchronous settings.
next section shows how we can construct canonical representations
JKBPs using automata.
