Abstract

Agent UML is a graphical modeling language based on UML. Like UML, Agent UML provides several types of representation covering the description of the system, the components, the dynamics of the system and the deployment. Multiagent system designers already use Agent UML to represent interaction protocols [13, 2]. Since agents and objects differ on several points, UML class diagram has to be modified for describing agents. The aim of this paper is to present how to extend UML class diagrams in order to represent agents. We then compare our approach to Bauer's approach [1].
