title = "Agreement in teams and the dynamic programming approach under information constraints",
abstract = "This chapter presents the notions of agreement and common knowledge, and addresses the question of how to achieve common knowledge. It presents a general framework for obtaining solutions to dynamic team problems under decentralized information structures based on dynamic programming and an evolving common knowledge, and applies this primarily in the context of the belief sharing information pattern. Information rates required for tractability of optimal solutions are also presented. Finally, the chapter introduces a team cost-rate function, which provides the minimum cost subject to a rate constraint on the information exchange among members of a team.",
