INTRODUCTION In the epidemiologic modeling of diseases, the epidemiologic problem oriented approach (EPOA) methodology facilitates the development of systematic and structured knowledge bases, which are crucial for development of models. A detailed understanding of the epidemiology of a given disease provides the essential framework for model development and enables the laying out of the compre...

Agent Oriented Software Engineering (AOSE) is defined as a new trend in computing with methodologies and modeling techniques for integrating agent entities in the software system, proposed to answer the increasingly complex distributed, large, open, dynamic, unpredictable, heterogeneous, and highly interactive application environments. Motivated by at least two main fields in computer science, ...

Due to the increased applications of agents, Agent-oriented software becomes large and complex. To support systematic developments of such a software, Agent-oriented software development methodology needs to be developed. This paper focuses on modeling phase of agent-oriented software development. For the Agent-oriented software modeling, Agent Elicitation method, Intra and Inter Agent modeling...

This abstract describes a comparative study of three formal methods for modeling and validating agent computations. The experiment is part of a joint project by researchers in MIT's Theory of Distributed Systems research group and NTT's Cooperative Computing research group. Our goal is to establish a mathematical and linguistic foundation for describing and reasoning about agent-style distribut...

in current work a comprehensive mechanism based on intermediate radical termination theory is assumed for raft polymerization of styrene over cumyl dithiobenzoate as raft agent. rate constants for addition (ka) and fragmentation reactions (kf) are set to 6×106 and 5×104 respectively, which lead to an equilibrium constant value of k = ka/kf = 1.2 x 102. moment equations method was used to model ...

In this paper we propose an agent-based modeling study to assess policy options towards technological interventions to energy consumption behavior, in particular products also known as ‘Transformational Products’. They are novel domestic heating energy efficiency enabling devices, designed to change heating behavior of their users. Innovative behavior can then trigger social learning, i.e. prop...

Intelligent agents provide a means to integrate various manufacturing software applications. The agents are typically executed in a computer-based collaborative environment, referred to as a multi-agent system. The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has developed a prototype multi-agent system supporting the integration of manufacturing planning, predictive machining models, ...

The use of intelligent agents is on the rise, fueled by the unprecedented growth in the Internet and web based applications. Consequently, agent-oriented software is becoming large and complex. To support a systematic development of such software, an agent-oriented software development methodology is necessary. This paper focuses on the modeling phase of agent-oriented software life cycle and, ...
