ALBERT: an agent-oriented language for building and eliciting requirements for real-time systems
Éric Dubois, Els Du Bois, Petit · 1994
Presents a formal specification language designed for capturing requirements expressed on composite real-time systems. The specification describes the system as a society of 'agents', each of them being characterised (i) by its responsibility with respect to actions happening an the system and (ii) by its time-varying perception of the behaviour of the other agents. On top of the language, we also suggest some methodological guidance by considering a general strategy based on a progressive assignment of responsibilities to agents.>
