Abstract
The GDT4MAS model is dedicated to the formal specification of agents and multiagents systems. It has been presented in previous articles [7, 6]. The proof mechanism relies on proof schemas that generate proof obligations, that is to say first-order formulae that can be proven (in most cases) by an automatic prover (such as PVS). In this article, we present a new version of proof schemas that increase the number of proofs that can be performed.
