....Based on these criteria we chose the five methodologies We were limited to choosing five methodologies since we had that many summer studentships. This prevented us Copyright is held by the author owner. ACM 0 89791 88 6 97 05. Gaia [26, 27] MESSAGE [4, 3] MaSE [8, 7] Prometheus [16, 17, 18, 19] and Tropos [1, 11] However due to space limitations only MaSE, Prometheus and Tropos are presented in this paper . In section 2, we briefly introduce these methodologies. Since it is impossible to accurately summarise a detailed methodology in a single page we attempt to give a flavour of ....

It has been successfully taught to and used by undergraduate students. Prometheus consists of three phases: system specification, architectural design and detailed design. The first phase of Prometheus, the system ....

.... In the last years several methodologies have been proposed for the development of multi agent systems [18] These methodologies in general tackle different aspects of the MAS and in some cases they are quite complementary e.g. Prometheus focuses on building agents using BDI platforms [14]; ROADMAP focuses on building open systems and emphasizes the social aspects of an agent system [10] As evinced from an analysis of the majority of proposed methodologies ( 2, 5, 19] most of the research energy has been dedicated to define new metaphors, symbols and diagrammatic notations. The ....

....developed in Agent UML (AUML) 3] converting them to equivalent Petri nets, and then using them to monitor execution and detect problems. The protocol diagrams being used were typical of those produced during the architectural design phase of the Prometheus design methodology for agent systems [1]. The key point is that instead of presenting messages to the programmer and relying on him or her to detect problems, the debugging agent proposed in [2] monitors conversations and detects problems by identifying messages that are not permissible in the conversation defined by the protocols. 2. ....

....well as the implemented tool prototypes we have been using. There is not room in a paper of this length for much comparison with other methodologies, but we mention this briefly in section 4, in particular discussing the relationship to UML. 2 The Prometheus Methodology The Prometheus methodology [ 15] includes three design phases, where artifacts are produced which are used in both production of skeleton code for implementation, and for debugging and testing. The system specificationphase focuses on identifying the basic functionalities of the system, along [actions and percepts final design ....

....event database; and for events and databases: what components read post write receive them. 4 Related Work There is currently a large amount of work being done in agent oriented software engineering methodologies (e.g. 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 18, 19, 22] and see the references in [15]) It is not possible in a brief conference paper to do justice to the significant amount of work being done. The GAIA methodology [22] has, like Prometheus, been developed over a number of years by people experienced in building agent systems. However we found that the lack of a detailed design ....

....can be modified during development to support changing aspects of the system. 1. Introduction Many diverse Agent Oriented Software Engineering (AOSE) approaches and methodologies have been proposed [4, 14] including the AAII methodology, AUML, Gaia, MaSE, Tropos, Prometheus and ROADMAP [6, 8, 15, 3, 11, 10, 5]. Each of the methodologies has different strengths and weaknesses, and different specialized features to support different aspects of their intended application domains. Clearly no single methodology is one size fits all . However, as application complexity grows, we expect future projects to ....

....to be combined into the common models in a flexible manner. By conforming to the generic agent model in the common elements, we expect the semantics of the optional features to remain consistent. As a step towards standardizing methodologies, we investigate two in detail. Prometheus and ROADMAP [10, 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, ....
