Multi-agent systems are a family of software architectures to be integrated into mainstream software developm.
Abstract: In this paper, we discuss the position of multi-agent systems (MASs) in the software development process. Basically, MASs provide an approach for solving software problems by decomposing a system into a number of autonomous entities, embedded in an environment, which cooperate in order to achieve the functional and non-functional requirements of the system. As such, MASs are in essence a family of software architectures and hence enter the software development picture in the design phase.... (Update)
