From Analysis to Deployment: A Multi-agent Platform Survey

This paper presents a survey on multi-agent platforms, with a particular focus on methodology. It presents the four stages of the construction of a multi-agent system and derives from these stages several criteria for comparison. These criteria are then used to evaluate four selected platforms, and lead to a discussion on the future of multi-agent platforms.
