A Parallel Dynamic Epistemic Perspective over Muddy Children Puzzle
Bogdan Macovei (University of Bucharest)

TL;DR
This paper formalizes the Muddy Children Puzzle using Public Observation Logic to model parallel epistemic sessions and information updates across multiple agents and sessions.
Contribution
It introduces a novel formalization of parallel sessions in the Muddy Children Puzzle with a logic that captures multi-session information updates.
Findings
Modeling of parallel epistemic sessions
Formalization of information updates across sessions
Application of Public Observation Logic to multi-session puzzles
Abstract
Epistemic protocols represents a current field of interest, with numerous approaches still being studied. In this paper we formalize parallel sessions of the The Muddy Children Puzzle using Public Observation Logic, a system that allows epistemic update. We consider agents with roles in multiple sessions and the information update in all parallel sessions as new information is discovered in any particular session.
