ZEUS: A Toolkit for Building Distributed Multi-Agent Systems - Nwana, Ndumu, Lee, Collis (1999) (41 citations) (Correct)
.... agent approach to distributed software engineering, there is an urgent need for frameworks, methodologies and toolkits that support the rapid development of multi agent systems [28] Hence, the recent explosion in the number of multi agent system development environments, frameworks and toolkits [2,4,5,7,8,22,25,34,35]. This paper describes ZEUS, a toolkit for constructing collaborative multi agent applications. ZEUS is a culmination of a careful synthesis of established agent technologies to provide an integrated environment for the rapid development of multi agent systems. ZEUS defines a multiagent system ....
....conversations between agents, while our co ordination graph specification is a more bottom up design. Jackal [34] is an agent communication infrastructure to support agent to agent communication using the KQML ACL. Jackal also implements various conversation policies like in COOL. DESIRE [7] provides a compositional development method and architecture for multi agent systems. It focuses on the architecture, and attempts to provide generic compositional building blocks for specifying agent architectures, like in ZEUS. However, DESIRE does not prescribe or specify issues such as ....

Within this paper examples are taken from a case study that has been performed in the context of the Rabobank, one of the largest banks in the Netherlands, see (Brazier et al. 1999). The case study addressed design and analysis of a multiagent approach for a bank service provision problem using a Call Centre. 3.

How the generic agent model GAM can be refined to obtain a formally specified design model of the BDIarchitecture, can be found in (Brazier, Dunin Keplicz, Treur and Verbrugge, 1999). The beliefs on the environment (the world and the other agents) are maintained within the components maintenance of world information and maintenance of agent information. The desires and intentions are represented within a refinement of component own process control, which in this case has a ....
