چکیده

Holonic multiagent systems offers a promising software engineering approach for developping applications in complex domains. However the process of building MASs and HMASs is radically different from the process of building more traditional software systems and so introduces new design and development issues. Against this background, this paper introduces organization-oriented abstractions for agent-oriented software engineering. We propose a complete organizational meta-model as the basis of a future complete methodological process from requirements to code. Besides to deal with this last aspect, we introduce our platform, called Janus, that was specifically designed to implement and deploy holonic multi-agent systems.

ASPECS: an Agent-oriented Software Process for Engineering Complex Systems How to design agent societies under a holonic perspective

Holonic multiagent systems (HMAS) offers a promising software engineering approach for developing complex open software systems. However the process of building MultiAgent Systems (MAS) and HMAS is mostly different from the process of building more traditional software systems and it introduces new design and development challenges. This paper introduces an agent-oriented software process for e...

The ASPECS Process

This chapter introduces an agent-oriented software process for engineering complex systems called ASPECS. ASPECS is based on a holonic organizational metamodel and provides a step-by-step guide from requirements to code, allowing the modeling of a system with different levels of details using a set of refinement methods. This chapter introduces the ASPECS process using the documentation templat...

How to Control Emergence of Behaviours in a

An open issue in self-organisation is how to control the emergence of behaviour. This issue is also of interest for engineering holonic multi-agent systems as any level of a holarchy is dependant of the emergent behaviours of its sub-levels. In order to tackle this specific feature of holonic multi-agent systems, the capacity concept which abstracts a know-how from its concrete realisation is i...

An organisational approach to engineer emergence within holarchies

An open issue in self-organization is how to engineer emergent behaviors. This issue is also of interest for engineering holonic multi-agent systems as any level of a holarchy is dependant of the emergent behaviors of its sub-levels. In order to tackle this specific feature of holonic multiagent systems, the capacity concept which abstracts a know-how from its concrete realization is introduced...
