The model checking problem for multi-agent systems against specifications in the alternating-time temporal logic AT L, hence AT L∗ , under perfect recall and imperfect information is known to be undecidable. To tackle this problem, in this paper we investigate a notion of bounded recall under incomplete information. We present a novel three-valued semantics for AT L∗ in this setting and analyse the corresponding model checking problem. We show that the three-valued semantics here introduced is an approximation of the classic two-valued semantics, then give a sound, albeit partial, algorithm for model checking two-valued perfect recall via its approximation as three-valued bounded recall. Finally, we extend MCMAS, an open-source model checker for AT L and other agent specifications, to incorporate bounded recall; we illustrate its use and present experimental results.
