Role Inheritance in Multi-Agent Systems
Menggao Dong · Computer Engineering and Science · 2007
Inheritance is an important relationship to describe the generality between agents.It is conducive to analyzing the hierarchy of multi-agent systems and facilitates software reuse.In this paper,we argue the importance and necessity to analyze and specify the inheritance when developing multiagent systems,and define a mechanism of inheritance in MAS by the role model that we present.We also present a method to model and analyze the role inheritance in the requirement analysis phase.
