jTRASTO: A Development Toolkit for Real-Time Multi-Agent Systems

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNAI,volume 4696))

Abstract

Nowadays, there exist some toolkits that design and implement multi-agent systems. However, these toolkits have certain deficiencies when applied in specific environments (i.e. real-time environments). In these environment there may be strict temporal restrictions that require the use of specific agent architectures. Since these architectures are not covered in the development process of existing tools, this paper presents a new toolkit for the implementation of real-time multi-agent systems based on the jART platform.
