Handbook on Agent-Oriented Design Processes
اس ای بک کے بارے میں
Following this standardization approach, this book gathers the documentations of some of the best-known agent-oriented design processes. After an introductory section, describing the goal of the book and the existing IEEE FIPA standard for design process documentation, thirteen processes (including the widely known Open UP, the de facto standard in object-oriented software engineering) are documented by their original creators or other well-known scientists working in the field. As a result, this is the first work to adopt a standard, unified descriptive approach for documenting different processes, making it much easier to study the individual processes, to rigorously compare them, and to apply them in industrial projects.
While there are a few books on the market describing the individual agent-oriented design processes, none of them presents all the processes, let alone in the same format. With this handbook, for the first time, researchers as well as professional software developers looking for an overview as well as for detailed and standardized descriptions of design processes will find a comprehensive presentation of the most important agent-oriented design processes, which will be an invaluable resource when developing solutions in variousapplication areas.مصنف کے بارے میں
Massimo Cossentino has been a research scientist at the Italian National Research Council since 2001. His research focuses on agent-oriented software engineering, specifically on the composition of design processes, agent meta-models, and agent patterns. Currently, he chairs the IEEE FIPA Design Process Documentation and Fragmentation Technical Committee, the AOSE Technical Forum Group and other scientific committees/events.
