Abstract

This paper presents a practical development of a study case regarding the utilization of a non-standard UML-F profile for the specification and documentation of an agent-oriented software framework devoted to the passenger transportation domain. UML-F profile does not pretend to replace the standard UML, but to use existing elements in it to represent in a better way the reality of a software framework through the adaptation of UML artifacts. The PASSI methodology has been used as base software engineering methodology for leveraging the multiagent architecture. As a way of ensuring proper development, it has been complemented with a general process for framework development.
