Experiencing AUML for the WINK Multi-Agent System
نویسندگان
چکیده
In the last few years, efforts have been done towards bridging the gap between agent technology and de facto standard technologies, aiming at introducing multi-agent systems in industrial applications. This paper presents an experience done by using one of such proposals, Agent UML. Agent UML is a graphical modelling language based on UML. The practical usage of this notation has brought to suggest some refinements of the Agent UML features.

متن کاملExperiencing AUML in the GAIA Methodology
In the last few years a great number of AOSE methodologies have been proposed, some of which centered on organizational aspects to better capture the behavior of agents societies. Those methodologies may be considered very useful for modeling open systems composed of a great number of interacting autonomous agents. Gaia exploits organizational abstractions to provide clear guidelines for the an...

This article discusses the viability of the AUML and UML languages employment, from the latter’s version 2.0 on, in the multiagent systems project. In this article some works that have used UML for the project of systems that involved agents, as well as some AOSE (Agent Oriented Software Engineering) methodologies that use in some way UML or AUML (or both), are presented. Immediately afterwards...
متن کاملA Tool for Specifying and Validating Agents' Interaction Protocols: From Agent UML to Maude
To achieve the multi-agent systems’ goals, agents interact to exchange information, to cooperate and to coordinate their tasks. Interaction is generally recognized as an important characteristic of multi-agent systems (MAS). The usual approaches to model agents’ interactions consist of describing them as protocols [Hug04]. In the literature, several representation formalisms of agents’ interact...

The relatively new concepts of agents and multi-agent systems have emerged as a promising approach to simplify the intricacies of developing huge and complex software applications. However, methodologies for effectively applying agent technology in such complex applications are still under development. Most of the well-documented specifications wander around the two same underlying research dir...
