The persistence of beliefs has been assumed in many research efforts, either explicitly or implicitly, but a computational model is hard to find. For instance, in his well-known AOP article, Shoham suggests a formal language for beliefs and states that beliefs persist by default. The author writes (Bel{sup 3}{sub A} Bel{sup 10}{sub B} Like(A, B){sup 7}) means that at time 3 agent A believes that at time 10 agent B will believe that at time 7 A liked B. Shoham, however, does not elaborate on how to formally interpret the persistence of beliefs. Moreover, in his implemented agent language, AGENT-0, both the temporal aspect of beliefs (e.g., At time t, I believe ...) and the nested beliefs (e.g., I believe you believe I believe ...) have been omitted.
