- Description
- Software agents provide an increasingly popular approach to software engineering, offering a fundamentally different design technique for software development based around the creation and deployment of autonomous software components. One of the leading models for the development of agent-based software is the Belief-Desire-Intention (BDI) model. In order to effectively develop BDI systems, a software development process is required, similar to those that exist for conventional object-oriented software development. This paper presents NUMAP, a development process for BDI multi-agent systems that covers the entire software development lifecycle, from requirements analysis to implementation and testing.
