An Architecture and System for Support of Cooperation in Multi-Agent Software Development

چکیده
There are many agent tools for facilitating professional programmers in developing multi-agent systems (MAS); however, not all of them can be easily used by users who are not professional programmers. Also there is a need for MAS to provide explicit support for agent cooperation. Therefore, in this paper we propose a script language to enable non-professionals to build their agents in an easy way using available tools and we implement a cooperative work support module which is based on the Agora concept. The developed platform is implemented as a plug-in to the JADE system; however, it can be also plugged-in to other agent platforms who comply with FIPA

متن کاملUsing a Mobile, Agent-Based Environment to Support Cooperative Software Processes
Cooperative Software Engineering (CSE) means that large-scale, software development and maintenance can be conducted in a distributed organisation or across organisations. CSE can be characterised by distributed process fragments, partly shared workspaces, cooperation planning, and frequent interactions in intra/inter-workspaces. To support CSE processes, we must deal with dynamic, unpredictabl...
