....the interoperation of complex components. Over the past fifteen years object oriented and component based techniques have been developed to take advantage of the first two of these notions. More recently, it has been suggested that the use of techniques associated with the concept of MadKit [9] is a fine grained agent building toolkit that includes some ideas similar to those expressed in this paper, although to our understanding it has some architectural differences with our approach and has not been used as the basis for a coarse grained agent building infrastructure. software agents ....

....and timed. The first implementation was a simple call to the Java method System.out.println( Hello World ) and the second the micro agent implementation as described above. The third was an implementation using the the same agent decomposition as the micro agent example, but with the MadKit [9] agent toolkit. The fourth was a similar implementation using the JADE [4] agent toolkit. The results of timing 10,000 Hello World requests are shown in Table 1. The JADE agents actually did not perform any message processing or parsing during the tests, and there was no data conversion performed ....

....contrast to the inflexibility of systems of cognitive agents. Recently, the evolution of Multi Agent Systems and the growing interest in multi agent development platforms have leaded to some interesting tools for agent software developers. AgentBuilder [4] JACK [5] JADE [6] JAFMAS [7] Madkit [8] and Zeus [9] are some examples of this type of tools. Globally platforms for development of agents are widely heterogeneous. Although, some platforms are grounded on well known models, like BDI model [10] for agent architecture or KQML [11] and FIPA ACL [12] infrastructures for communication ....

....[3] or to support high level cognitive modelling, for example by using the BDI model [5] While such powerful machinery may be valuable for certain situations, its use for building smaller components, such as graphical user inter face applications, may be irrelevant and impractical. MadKit [6, 7] is a fine grained agent building toolkit that includes some ideas similar to those expressed here, although to our understanding it has some architectural di#erences and has not been used as the basis for a coarse grained agent building infrastructure, such as the Otago agent framework, Opal. ....

....we have introduced a formal verification approach. Moreover, the specification structure enables incremental and modular validation and verification through its decomposition. Eventually, such a specification can be refined to an implementation with multi agent development platform like MadKit [9] which are based upon an organizational model [5] Formal theories are numerous in the MAS area but they are not all related to concrete computational models [2] Temporal modal logic, for example, have been widely used [17] Despite the important contribution of these works to a solid underlying ....

....the agent a, conrms good reception and ask the kernel agent to resume the new a. The local migratory agent which resides on s then asks the kernel agent to kill the old suspended agent. 4 The MadKit platform To demonstrate the eoeectiveness of this model, we have built an agent platform [12], called MadKit (for iMulti Agent Development Kitj) to validate this approach. The MadKit platform implements at core the concepts of agent, group and role, and adds three design principles: ffl Micro kernel architecture 10 Agent micro kernel Agent micro kernel Agent micro kernel Agent ....
