Abstract

Due to the increased applications of agents, Agent-oriented software becomes large and complex. To support systematic developments of such a software, Agent-oriented software development methodology needs to be developed. This paper focuses on modeling phase of agent-oriented software development. For the Agent-oriented software modeling, Agent Elicitation method, Intra and Inter Agent modeling method are proposed. Agent Elicitation shows how to extract agents from classes in the real world. Modeling methods of Agent's characteristics - Goal, Belief, Plan and Capability - are proposed for Intra Agent modeling. Methods of Agent's mobility and communication in multi-agent systems are proposed for Inter Agent modeling.
