Infrastructure for Forensic Analysis of Multi-Agent Based Simulations

摘要

The Multi Agent Systems (MAS) theory has methodical approaches to analyze, understand and debug the social level of agents. This paper aims to argue that technologies for the analysis of MAS can be used in the field of Multi-agent based simulation (MABS), In particular, forensic analysis is proposed. It is explained the creation of an infrastructure for forensic analysis to assist the analysis of any model independently of its scope and framework of development. To achieve this genericity, the proposal is based in the use of Aspect Oriented Programming (AOP). In addition, it is given the key ideas used in the implementation of this infrastructure on the MABS platform MASON, giving a great power of analysis to this framework.
