Abstract

In this work an original case study corresponding to a new multiagent system implementation is presented. The built system is a distributed videoconferencing software which is integrated in an e-learning environment. The system provides the user with specific functionalities including storage of data and multiple profile management. It has been developed following a well know multiagent methodology: INGENIAS and implemented using the Java Multimedia Framework. The use of the system in a university domain has yield to promising results. Moreover, the software has been designed in an open way resulting in a portable system, which can be used in other domains different form e-learning such as e-Health-care or e-Business.
