Abstract

Interactions represent an important issue to be faced in the development of complex agent systems, and deserve for appropriate support. In this context, roles have been successfully exploited to design and deal with agent interactions. In this paper we explain how the role management can be supported by the environment and which the related advantages are. We will also present an infrastructure, RoleX, that can be exploited to accomplish this task.
