Abstract

The purpose of this study is to reduce the gap between the requirement analysis and analysis phases of developing multi-agent systems. We utilize KAOS, one of the goal-oriented analysis methodologies, as a requirement analysis method, and propose a model translation into an analysis model for simple and effective development of multi-agent systems.

Several surveys indicate that a significant percentage of data warehouses fail to meet business objectives or are outright failures. One of the reasons for this is that requirement analysis is typically overlooked in real projects. In this paper we ...
