COMPOR - desenvolvimento de software para sistemas multiagentes.

Abstract

Many researchers have been claimed that the multiagent approach is suitable for the development of complex software systems. Many works have been proposed focusing methodologies and tools to apply the multiagent approach on large scale software development. However, the dynamic feature of the system and the flexibility and adaptability of the solution have not been considered. This work presents an engineering infrastructure to software development through a multiagent approach, named COMPOR. This infrastructure represents a set of guidelines and tools to develop software for complex, open and dynamic systems. Flexibility and adaptability of the provided solution are the main goal of COMPOR. In order to illustrate its usefulness, the development of a complex virtual enterprise application is presented.
