Our goal in this paper is to introduce and motivate a methodology, called Tropos, 1 for
building agent oriented software systems. Tropos is based on two key ideas. First, the notion …

Systems composed of interacting autonomous agents offer a promising software
engineering approach for develo** applications in complex domains. However, this …
