....with a special reference to group and collective phenomena. In the final section, some conclusions are drawn and ideas for future work are outlined. 2. MOTIVATION The emergence and representation of social structures is a matter of growing concern in the (Multi) Agent Systems field [12] [13] [1] This is so for different but interrelated reasons. First, the emergence of groups, leadership and other social formations are receiving growing attention for designing and implementing robust open multi agent systems [14] Secondly, an efficient task distribution and execution is ....

.... approaches never really passed the draft stage [22] c) Lately, the DOT Profile project has proposed to consider an RM ODP system on a component basis but for now it only addresses the analysis phase [4] There are increasing efforts to adapt the UML notation to agent systems specification [1, 17,32]. 3.2 Architecture Engineering Architecture Engineering mainly consists of ADLs definitions enabling the description of architectures. Basically, ADLs have two main concepts: components and connectors. An architecture is then described as components connected by the connectors. The graphical ....

....make it fit some special requirement of agent oriented software, there are two possible ways to be taken. One way is to extend the UML by providing new structural elements and diagrams that enhance the expressive power of the base language. This way is favored by the developers of AUML [2] 1] [14] which proposes an extension of the UML with respect to agentoriented concepts. This approach, however, has the major drawback that it violates the idea of the UML as a general design language. To quote from [17] p. 103: Many modelers wish to tailor a modeling language for a particular ....

.... [21] Another important di#erence between AOP and OOP is that objects are controlled from the outside (whitebox control) as opposed to agents that have autonomous behavior which can t be directly controllable from the outside (blackbox control) In other words, agents have the right to say no [9] Can agents solve all software problems Since this is a new and rapidly growing filed, there is a danger that researchers become overly optimistic regarding the abilities of agent oriented software engineering. 2 Wooldridge and Jennings [7, 33] discuss the potential pitfalls of agent oriented ....
....on the UML collaboration diagram format. This protocol diagram corresponds to Odell et al. s [14] first layer model of the communication protocol. The fourth is the role diagram based on the UML class diagram, it is used to represent the functionalities each agent role has. Parunak and Odell [9] combine existing organizational models for agents in a UML based framework in order to model and represent social structures in UML. This work is an improvement oo the Agent UML extensions to UML. 4.2 Design Patterns Design patterns are reoccuring patterns of programming code or components ....
