SODA

SODA

SODA (Societies in Open and Distributed Agent spaces) is a methodology for the analysis and design of complex agent-based systems
  • SODA does not directly deal with intra-agent issues: designing a multi-agent system with SODA leads to defining agents in terms of their required observable behaviour and their role in the multi-agent system
    • any other AOSE methodology focussing on intra-agent design can be used to complement SODA
  • instead, SODA  focuses on inter-agent and agent-environment issues, like the engineering of societies and infrastructures for multi-agent systems
  • an extended version of the methodology has been proposed, which takes into account both the Agents and Artifacts (A&A) meta-model, and a mechanism to manage the complexity of system description.
