Abstract

In a multi-agent system, the organization determines the architecture of the whole system, and the way and policies for agent collaboration and interactions. Although this is a key element in the development process of this kind of systems, existing efforts in modeling organizations have not yet been integrated into common bodies of knowledge, neither into existing standards. This paper provides a study of general requirements for organization modeling during the analysis phase, and describes how this can be applied in the design and implementation of multi-agent systems. This is illustrated with a real example that has been developed with the INGENIAS methodology and tools, and implemented on the JADE agent platform.
