“…Meanwhile, new paradigms and techniques like Web services or ServiceOriented Architectures have shown up as alternatives, although platforms like Webmages [7] demonstrate a reasonable combination of mobile agent technology with up-todate web service architectures. Also, software deployment in networks may be fused with the management of Web services [19].…”

Not many computer science topics have enjoyed a similarly broad interest like autonomous software agents. In the last 20 years, more than 180 platforms were created, intended to facilitate agent application creation. In recent years, agent platform research seems to have lost again much of its attractiveness. This article is the first part of a three-part survey on agent platform technology. We will at first discuss the role of platforms for agent software engineering in particular and present a classification of agent platforms.

The paper presents an architecture and implementation that allows distributed execution of workflow applications in BeesyCluster using agents. BeesyCluster is a middleware that allows users to access distributed resources as well as publish applications as services, define service costs, grant access to other users and consume services published by others. Workflows created in the BeesyCluster middleware are exported to BPEL and executed by agents in a distributed environment. As a proof of concept, we have implemented a real workflow for parallel processing of digital images and tested it in a real cluster-based environment. Firstly, we demonstrate that engaging several agents for distributed execution is more efficient than a centralized approach. We also show increasing negotiation time in case of too many agents. Secondly, we demonstrate that execution in the proposed environment is reliable even in case of failures. If a service fails, a task agent picks a new equivalent service at runtime. If one of task agents fails, another of remaining agents takes over its responsibilities. The communication between the middleware, agents and services is encrypted.

“…In [13], we can see an example of JADE being used to substitute most human decision making in an e-commerce system. In the field of the Internet, in [14], JADE is integrated along with a platform that allows for the installation of web services in servers during execution by using agents. Furthermore, in [15], a modification of this software is presented that includes a belief-desire-intention architecture for the agents.…”

Abstract:This paper describes the performance measurement for multiagent systems (PeMMAS) tool, a system designed to study and measure the performance of any multiagent system (MAS) de-veloped in JADE. The tool itself is another MAS which is deployed and coexists alongside the one being studied. This characteristic allows us to adapt PeMMAS to any scenario in which MAS de-ployment in JADE is used. PeMMAS extracts information from the target MAS regarding the use of system resources, the flight time for comprehensive messages according to agent type, as well as the processing time for actions. After processing this information, PeMMAS sends a report to the final user for subsequent analysis.Index Terms-Distributed artificial intelligence, multiagent systems (MAS), performance systems, telecontrol.
