CArtAgO: An Infrastructure for Engineering Computational Environments in MAS

Alessandro Ricci, Mirko Viroli, Andrea Omicini
Artifacts have been recently proposed as first-class abstractions to model and engineer general-purpose computational environments for mul- tiagent systems. In this paper, we consider the design and development of an infrastructure called CArtAgO, directly supporting the artifact notion for the engineering of multiagent applications. We first propose an abstract model of the infrastructure, and then describe an implementation prototype of it.
Keywords: CArtAgO, A&A, artifacts, multi-agent systems, agent-oriented computing
