A Bdi Agent Software Development Process, Jeffrey M. Einhorn

Theses and Dissertations

As computer software continues to grow increasingly complex with each passing year, researchers continue to try and develop means to simplify software development. In this thesis, we propose a BDI agent software development process as the next evolution in software development. The goal of this research is to develop a process, which can be used to enable the creation of agent-based systems.

This thesis strives to present a practical software development process, which is useful to today's software engineer, by building upon current agent research and proven software engineering practices. Our BDI agent software development process is a systematic process, …
