Abstract

The increasing interest of developing and formally studying mobile agents has taken place in the last decade. Several formalisms and tools have been created to aid this enterprise. However, tools are mostly developed in isolation and, therefore, are hard to use together. The present work is an attempt to make such integration easier, through the provision of a common ‘language’ – an ontology – for verification tools reasoning about mobile agents.
