Abstract:
Abstract. An agent oriented approach is well suited for complex application domains, and often when such applications are used by domain experts they identify modifications to be made to these applications. However, domain experts are usually limited in agent programming knowledge, and are not able to make these changes themselves. The aim of this work is to provide support so that domain experts are able to make modifications to agent systems. In this paper we report on an evaluation of our Component Agent Framework for domain Experts (CAFnE) framework and toolkit, giving a detailed account of a usability study we conducted with a group of experienced meteorologists. 1
