Normative Programming for Organisation Management Infrastructures
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recent work shows a tendency to use programming languages specific to the social aspects of multi-agent systems, for example in programming norms that agents ought to follow. In this paper, we introduce a simple and elegant normative programming language called NPL and show its operational semantics. We then define a particular class of NPL programs that are suitable for programming Organisation Management Infrastructures (OMI) forMOISE, defining a Normative Organisation Programming Language (NOPL). We show howMOISE’s Organisation Modelling Language can be translated into NOPL, and briefly describe how this all has been implemented on top of an artifact-based OMI for MOISE.

متن کاملModel Checking Normative Agent Organisations
We present the integration of a normative programming language in the MCAPL framework for model checking multi-agent systems. The result is a framework facilitating the implementation and verification of multi-agent systems coordinated via a normative organisation. The organisation can be programmed in the normative language while the constituent agents may be implemented in a number of (BDI) a...

متن کاملA Framework for Programming Norm-Aware Multi-agent Systems
We propose a programming framework for the implementation of norm-aware multi-agent systems. The framework integrates the N-2APL normaware agent programming language with the 2OPL organisation programming language. Integration of N-2APL and 2OPL is achieved using a tuple space which represents both the (brute) state of the multi-agent environment and the detached norms and sanctions comprising ...
