Abstract

In spite of much research and development on agent-oriented software engineering methodologies and supporting software tools, the problem remains of topmost importance. Many efforts are still needed to make such methodologies and software tools practically applicable at an industrial scale. This paper proposes extension of the Gaia methodology with a formal specification language, making it possible to implement Gaia as a model-driven engineering process supported by a corresponding agent-based software development environment, MASDK 4.0. The paper outlines MASDK 4.0 through the extended Gaia, and demonstrates the technology supported by MASDK 4.0 on the basis of a fragment of a case study on autonomous air traffic control.
