....that considers software as (built of) social and intentional structures all along the development life cycle. The ontology considers organizational styles for architectural design and social patterns for detailed design. Organizational architectural styles for Tropos have been further detailed in [9]. The present paper details the notion of social patterns for Tropos. It focuses on the conceptualization of a framework called SKwyRL that we have integrated in Tropos. To do so, SKwyRL models the social patterns according to the five complementary dimensions proposed by Tropos: social, ....

....like agent communication, information gathering, or connection setup. In the following, we present patterns focusing on social and intentional aspects that are recurrent in multi agent and cooperative systems. In particular, the structures are inspired by the federated patterns introduced in [7, 9] and used in Tropos . We have classified them in two categories. The Pair patterns describe direct interactions between negotiating agents. The Mediation patterns feature intermediate agents that help other agents reach agreement about an exchange of services. 2.1 Pair Patterns The Booking ....

....Tropos can be found in [Cas02] The present work continues the research in progress about social abstractions for the Tropos methodology. In [Fux01, Ko102] we have detailed a social ontology for Trepes to consider information systems as social structures all along the development life cycle. In [Ko101, Ko102a, Gio02], we have described how to use this Trepes social ontology to design multi agent systems architectures. As a matter of fact, multi agent systems can be considered structured societies of coordinated autonomous agents. In the present paper, we emphasize now the use of organizational patterns based ....

Other proposed patterns are, for example, the matrix, the pyramid, and the lattice (see e.g. Mor99] For further information about the patterns we are working on, see [Ko101, Fux01 a]. 2.2.

At its core, this structure is a trading parmership that enhances the effectiveness of the competitive strategies of the participant organizations by providing for the mutually ....

As a result, the organizational architecture styles are not described nor the conceptual high level perspective of the e business application. In Tropos, we have defined organizational architectural styles [19, 20, 14] for agent, cooperative, dynamic and distributed applications to guide the design of the system architecture. These architectural styles (pyramid, joint venture, structure in 5, takeover, arm s length, vertical integration, co optation, bidding, are based on concepts and design alternatives ....
