Abstract
Multi-Agent paradigm has become a promising paradigm for developing real world applications and gaining popularity especially in ecological and environmental modeling. Multi-agents are modeled using Agent Unified Modeling Language (AUML) as Unified Modeling Language (UML) notations are not enough to express agent properties / behaviours. In this paper, we have proposed A Tool for Agent Based Modeling to help designer in building rapid multi-agent based applications. The purpose of this toolkit is to make life of a developer easier and to save his time by not reinventing an agent that is already developed.
