Abstract
In MAS programming and engineering, the environment and the organisation can be exploited as first-class design and programming abstractions besides the aGent one A main example of a platform implementing this view is JaCaMo, which allows the programming of a MAS in terms of an organisation of cognitive aGents sharing a common artifact-based environment However, MAS models and platforms in general do not provide a satisfactory approach for MAS developers to uniformly deal with distribution at multiple dimensions- A Gent, environment, and organisation Typically, environments are either centralised in a single node, or composed by parts that run on different nodes but with a poor support at the programming and execution levels to deal with that In this paper, we tackle this problem by proposing a model for engineering world-wide distributed environments and organisations for MAS The approach integrates the A&A (AGents and Artifacts) conceptual model with a web/resource-oriented view of distributed systems as proposed by the REST architectural style To evaluate the approach, an extension of the JaCaMo open-source platform has been developed implementing the proposed model.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
