While agents have emphasised the notion of active software components, they are not likely to be the only active components in agent-based systems. In this paper, we first discuss ...
Abstract. This paper presents a multi agent-oriented prototyping approach. It is a generic approach, applicable to a wide range of multi-agent systems. This approach relies on a fe...

Social Order becomes a major problem in MAS and in computer mediated human interaction. After explaining the notions of Social Order and Social Control, I claim that there are mult...
While software is becoming decomposed in more and more finegrained entities, the interactions amongst those become of major importance. While methodologies for building such compon...
The design and development of Internet applications can take advantage of a paradigm based on autonomous and mobile agents. However, agent mobility introduces peculiar coordinatio...
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 f...
Abstract. Software engineering describes a system at different levels of abstraction. Agent-oriented software engineering introduces a new level, called the agent level, to allow t...
We present a first approach that combines the mobile agent and the compositional paradigms into a new agent-based compositional model. The aim of this work is to explore the capabi...
