Modeling for JADE Based on Nested Petri Nets
Dehua Li · Jisuanji gongcheng · 2008
A good modeling method for Multi-Agent System(MAS) is one of the necessary conditions for large-scale development and applicationof MAS.Nested Petri nets(NP-nets) as modeling tools are applied to Java Agent Development Framework(JADE), and a relationship of contrastbetween NP-nets and MAS which is based on object oriented programming is established.It not only can effectively restrict the scale of state spaceby using hierarchical structure, but also can overcome the tremendous difficulties of the structure evolution of Petri nets by nesting net token withinothers.
