On the evaluation of MAS development tools

چکیده
Recently a great number of methods and frameworks to develop multiagent systems have appeared. Nowadays there is no established framework to evaluate environments to develop multiagent systems (MAS) and choosing between one framework or another is a difficult task. The main contributions of this paper are: (1) a brief analysis of the state of the art in the evaluation of MAS engineering; (2) a complete list of criteria that helps in the evaluation of multiagent system development environments;(3) a quantitative evaluation technique;(4) an evaluation of the Ingenias methodology and its development environment using this evaluation framework.

متن کاملMultiagent Systems Development Kits: An Evaluation
The complexity associated with development of Multiagent Systems (MAS) may often be reduced greatly by the use of existing Multiagent System Development Kits (MASDKs). These kits provide the MAS developer with a wide range of powerful agent and MAS building tools, specifically designed to make the task of agent creation easier. The use of a MASDK allows the developer to forget about specific an...
