Abstract

New paradigms such as formal methods, object-oriented design and artificial intelligence, in addition to the concept of multi-agent coordination, have given new opportunities for the software development process. However, the separated use of these paradigms offers only a partial solution to the problem of software engineering. In this paper, we propose a methodology to model the software production pro- cess. This methodology is based on the concept of multi-agent. In this respect, we consider an agent as an intelligent object represented by the triplet (Object, Interaction, Artificial Intelligence). This approach offers a common fra
