Framework for Integrated Use of Agent-Based and Ambient-Oriented Modeling

A Framework for Modeling Agent-Oriented Software

With the increasing importance of complex software systems in the software industry, the need for using agent technologies to develop large-scale commercial and industrial software systems is growing rapidly. Such systems are complex and there is a pressing need for system modeling techniques to support reliable, maintainable and extensible design. G-Nets are a type of Petri net defined to supp...

task-based instruction, consciousness-raising and iranian efl learners acquisition and use of collocation

the present study sought to examine whether a task-based approach could have an impact on raising awareness of collocations. moreover, it sought to investigate the facilitative role of consciousness-raising tasks of collocations in the communicative instances of use. to this end, 68 intermediate learners of english were selected via a placement test. the participants were taught with classroom ...

Towards an Agent-based, Integrated Land-use Transport Modeling System

This paper reports on initial steps of an integration of the microscopic land-use simulation system SILO (Simple Integrated LandUse Orchestrator) and the agent-based transport simulation system MATSim (Multi-Agent Transport Simulation). It is shown how information can be transferred from the land-use model to the transport model in an agent-oriented fashion and how MATSim can be used as a trans...

An Aspect-Oriented Modeling Framework for Designing Multi-Agent Systems

A number of concerns in multi-agent system (MAS) design have a crosscutting impact on agent-oriented models. These concerns inherently affect several system agents and their internal modeling elements, such as actions and goals. Examples of crosscutting concerns in MAS design encompass both internal and systemic properties, such as learning, mobility, error handling, and security. Without an ex...
