At the first Venaco workshop, the mathematical and physical constraints leading to the Layered Protocol structure of dialogue were described. It was argued that considerations of informational efficiency in the communication between intelligent partners demand layered coding. The constraints limiting communication seem to be fundamental and unavoidable, and therefore a layered coding structure should be found in any efficient communication in which the partners are not designed as complements of one another.
