Interaction channel
a specific pathway or mechanism through which agents in a multi-agent system communicate, coordinate, or influence each other, including shared time, shared attention, shared data, shared goals, or shared resources.
Why This Is a Definition
This definition precisely delineates what constitutes an 'interaction channel' within the curriculum's framework. It identifies the specific types of pathways through which agents interact (shared time, attention, data, goals, resources) and distinguishes this from general agent relationships. The definition is precise enough to distinguish interaction channels from other concepts like dependencies or relationships.
