Abstract

BDI models and argumentation-based approaches are powerful tools that can play a fundamental role in implementing intelligent systems for complex business and industrial problems. Some recent works have started studying the integration of both approaches from a theoretical point of view. However, little effort has been made to analize how these technologies can be effectively integrated in complex systems which require the use of well-known development resources, such as agent development platforms and other programming tools. This work addresses that problem, showing how an argumentation-based reasoning service can be used in different components of a BDI agent implemented with a Jadex platform. All the concepts involved in our proposal are exemplified by designing and implementing a travel assistant agent that allows to observe how BDI and argumentation approaches can be effectively integrated in a working system developed with freely available technologies.
