However, its direct adoption on specific application contexts requires dealing with questions such as the argument structure, the argument categories, the conditions under which an attack/support is established between arguments, etc. This paper presents a generic argumentation framework which comprehends a conceptualization layer to capture the expressivity and semantics of the argumentation data employed in a specific context and simplifies its adoption by applications. The conceptualization layer together with the defined argument structure is exploited to automatically derive the attack and support relationships between arguments.}, urldate = {2012-06-20}, booktitle = {Theorie and Applications of Formal Argumentation}, publisher = {Springer Berlin / Heidelberg}, author = {Maio, Paulo and Silva, Nuno}, editor = {Modgil, Sanjay and Oren, Nir and Toni, Francesca}, year = {2012}, keywords = {Computer Science}, pages = {163--180}} }
