Abstract
With its Unified Modeling Language UML standard Object Management Group (OMG) made modelling of system design popular. By introducing the Model Driven Architecture OMG provided the means to define dedicated modelling languages for different application domains and system design methodologies. Agent-based system design gained significant interest in the 1990s. Different approaches for the modeling of agent-based systems have been proposed and more recently metamodels for these approaches have been published. A standard is currently in progress by the OMG: the Agent Metamodel and Profile (AMP). The objective of AMP is to provide a metamodel and profile for extending UML with core capabilities to enable agents and agent-based software. This article is limited to providing that background information on how AMP fits into the OMG’s approach to the core metamodel that is being considered for the AMP.
