Towards an agent architectural description language for information systems.
Stéphane Faulkner, Manuel Kolp · 2003
Abstract: This paper identifies the foundations for an architectural description language (ADL) to specify multi-agent system architectures for information systems. We propose a set of system architectural concepts based on the BDI agent model and existing classical ADLs. We then conceptualize SKwyRL-ADL, aimed at capturing a “core ” set of structural and behavioral concepts, including relationships that are fundamental in architecture description for BDI-MAS. We partially apply our ADL on a peer-to-peer document sharing example.
