Abstract

This paper proposes a new organization-based multi-agent programming (OrgMAP) approach to constructing dynamic and flexible software systems. A computational and programming model named Oragent is defined following software engineering principles such as modularity, reusability and etc. Oragent model not only allows programmers to represent the systems with highlevel abstractions in terms of organizations, rules, protocols and roles, but also provides a number of mechanisms, such as encapsulation, inheritance, enactment and event, to improve the dynamics and flexibility of MAS.
