Abstract

The multi-agent paradigm promises to provide systems with the ability to adapt to changing external contexts. In this paper, we propose an approach for the model-driven design of context-aware multi-agent systems. We provide a classification for differentiating between different aspects of context and present a specification technique for modeling these aspects. We finally discuss the difficult transition from general requirements to implemented solution and propose some techniques.
