Abstract: The Contract Net protocol is a general-purpose protocol for distributed problem solving. Many modern agent infrastructures facilitate the generation of agents supporting Contract Net. We used one such infrastructure to simulate a Contract Net-based approach to job scheduling and found that some jobs failed to get scheduled even though the resources were available. This paper describes two phases of the subsequent debugging effort. The first phase was enhancing the visualization of the agent... (Update)

.... component of multi agent systems, and debugging the communication that occurs between agents can be quite difficult (for example see [5]) We begin by presenting an overview of interaction protocol design within an agent based software engineering methodology. We then...
