Detailed Description

MultiAgentDecisionProcess is an class that defines the primary properties of a decision process.

These primary properties are: -the number of agents -possibly, a vector of (named) agents -the filename to be parsed, if applicable.

It is the only current implementation of MultiAgentDecisionProcessInterface
