A Practical Method for Developing Multi Agent Systems: APMDMAS

摘要

While Multi Agent Systems (MAS) attracted a great deal of attention in the field of software engineering, with its promises of capturing complex systems, they remain far away from commercial popularity mainly due to the lack of a MAS methodology that is accessible for commercial developers. In this paper we present a practical method for developing MAS that we believe will enable not only software developers but also business people beyond the academic community to design and develop MAS easily.
