Modelling Mobile Agent Applications by Extended UML Activity Diagram
نویسندگان
چکیده
Mobile agent technology has gained increasing importance in recent years. However, little work has been done in defining notations/languages to capture and model mobile agent applications. This paper presents extensions of UML activity diagrams for modelling mobile agent applications, which capture specific features of mobile agents such as mobility, cloning and communications.

Modelling Mobile Agent Applications in UML2.0 Activity Diagrams
Mobile agent technology has gained more importance recently due to the rapid advance of high-performance mobile devices with high-speed wireless telecommunications technology such as 3G. However design methodologies for mobile agent applications are not mature enough to support their software development process. We proposed an extension of Activity Diagrams in UML 1.5 for modelling mobile agen...
متن کاملExtending UML State Diagrams to Model Agent Mobility
This paper presents a simplified form of UML state diagrams for modeling agent mobility. Mobile agent has gained more importance technology. The notations used to model agent mobility are focused on capturing agent creation, mobility paths and current agent location. In this paper, we demonstrate how the simplification of the state UML 2.0 Activity Diagrams can be used for modeling mobile agent...
متن کاملModeling Deployment and Mobility Issues in Multiagent Systems Using AUML
This paper demonstrates how UML can be exploited and extended to model the deployment of a multiagent system at the agent level. This is accomplished by extending the formally-based UML 2.0 metamodel to support the semantics of agents, mobile agents and their supporting platforms. Additionally, the UML-based notation, used to model the deployment of a multiagent system, takes advantage of stere...
متن کاملA UML-Based Design Environment for Interactive Applications
The Unified Modeling Language (UML) can be used for modelling both the structure and behaviour of software applications. However, although UML supports many different modelling notations, minimal support is provided for user interface (UI) design. The Unified Modeling Language for Interactive Applications (UMLi) is an extension of UML that provides support for UI design. UMLi has a user interfa...
متن کاملTowards a UML profile for context-awareness domain
Defining Unified Modelling Language (UML) profiles allows adaptation of the UML metamodel for specific domain, area, platform, etc. Context awareness is one of particular domains that need to be well adapted when we use UML language to model specific situations of users and applications. Therefore, it is necessary to create specific modelling notations for this particular domain. In this paper,...
