A model of BDI-agent in game-theoretic framework is presented. The desire is represented as agent’s goal to achieve a maximum
level of utility. A reasoning process based on agent’s rational behavior is proposed. This process determines agent’s intention. It is also shown how to use the backward induction consistently with
the assumption of the common knowledge of rationality.
