....requirements must be determined and frozen during the analysis stage, and any factors to be accounted for at run time must be anticipated and designed for during the design stage. These assumptions are problematic from two perspectives. Firstly they unnecessarily constrain complex open systems [8,12]. Secondly, they are difficult to enforce during all stages of development. There is an increasing demand for open systems in the industry [1,9,13,18] A methodology that provides appropriate support for engineering large scale open systems is significant and useful. Multi Agent Systems (MAS) ....

....Many applications in our scenario are expected to be highly available. To extend and maintain these applications, we need the ability to change the application architecture as well as the ability of individual agents at runtime. A rich body of work exists for reflection and adaptive software [1,4,7,8,12,18]. At the methodology level we do not subscribe to any particular implementation. We only model it abstractly. To do so, we extend the permissions attribute of roles. We allow a role to have read, write or create permissions on definitions of other roles. For example, a role A might include in its ....

....5] have rather different aims. Prometheus focuses on building agents using BDI platforms [12] and on providing explicit and detailed processes and deliverables suitable for use by industry practitioners with limited agent experience, or by undergraduates. ROADMAP focuses on building open systems [7, 13, 16] and emphasis the societal aspects of an agent system. Key concepts in ROADMAP are roles and environmental zones. These concepts are used to model trust in open organizations of agents. We introduce the two methodologies and discuss their respective applicability in section 2 and 3. We then ....
