Tropos is one of the most complete agent-oriented However, their application is still limited due to their software development methodologies in which AI lack of sufficient documents, tools and maturity. derived mentalistic notions such as actors, goals, soft Tropos is one of the most accurate and complete agent goals, plans, resources, and intentional dependencies oriented methodologies that have been proposed in are used in all the phases of software development, recent years. Several developing tools are designed to from the first phases of early analysis down to the support Tropos, but almost non of them aren’t able to actual implementation [2]. A crucial role is given to support all phases of Tropos. One of these tools is the earlier analysis of requirements that precedes JACK. JACK is a powerful tool for visual modeling of prescriptive requirements specification [3]. the architectural design and plans. It can support only Tropos rests on five main phases for agent based the last three phases of Tropos: architectural design, systems development: early requirements analysis, late detailed design, and implementation.

The first phase, early notions are used in all software development phases, requirements analysis, is also defined in requirements from early requirements analysis down to the actual engineering, but there is not enough experience on it. implementation. These notions are founded on BDI2 The key concepts of Tropos are showed in Table 1. agent architectures. 2. A crucial role is given to early requirements Table 1: The key concepts of Tropos analysis that precedes the prescriptive requirements specification of the system-to-be. This means that the Concept Description Symbol methodology includes earlier phases of the software Model of Software development process than those supported by other Actor Agents agent or object oriented software engineering Non Functional methodologies.

The late requirement analysis aims at specifying the system-to-be within its operating environment, along Table 2: Tropos tools and their supported phases with relevant functions and qualities. The system is represented as an actor which has a number of Tool Supported Phases dependencies with the actors already described during TAOM4E 1,2 the early requirements phase.

After selecting all required courses, with a set of plans in order to make them capable of the student should confirm his/her registration. achieving goals [5]. Confirmation, also, needs to meet some preferences. To support the programming of BDI agents, JACK Figures 2, 3 and 4 show some of the designed offers five principal language constructs. These are as diagrams, due to Tropos concepts. These diagrams can follows [7]: be generated in EJACK due to JACK development – Agent: A JACK agent is used to define the behavior concepts. Figure 5 shows the architectural design of an intelligent software agent. This includes the diagram generating with EJACK. capabilities an agent has, the types of messages and events it responds to and the plans it uses to achieve its Table 3: Mapping between Tropos and JACK goals. concepts to construct EJACK – Capability: A JACK capability can include plans, Tropos JACK events, beliefs and other capabilities. An agent can be assigned a number of capabilities. Furthermore, a Actor given capability can be assigned to different agents. JACK’s capability notion provides a means to reuse. Resource – Belief: The JACK database amounts to a generalized relational database that describes a set of beliefs ascribed to an agent. Plan – Event: Internal and external events specified in the detailed design map to JACK’s event construct. In Soft Goal & Hard Goal JACK, an event describes a triggering condition for agent’s actions. – Plan: The plans contained in a capability Actor Capability specification resulting from a detailed design map to JACK plans. In JACK, a plan is a sequence of instructions the agent follows to try to achieve goals and deal with occurrences of events. Tropos adopts the i* modeling framework [8], which offers the notions of actor, goal and (actor) dependency, and uses these as a foundation to model early and late requirements, architectural and detailed design. Figure 1 summarizes the mapping from i* concepts to JACK constructs and how each concept is related to the others within the same model [9]. Since representation of agent beliefs is one of the Tropos objectives, relation between JACK and Tropos can be understood clearly. The diagrams produced in stages 1 and 2 by TAMO4E, should be converted to include JACK Figure 1: Converting Tropos concepts to JACK’s, concepts, because of the difference between JACK and using BDI model concepts4. A Case Study Tropos in key concepts. So, according to figure 1, we first convert Tropos concepts to BDI concepts and then change them to JACK concepts. This mapping, that is the basis of EJACK, is shown in table 3. The experimental application that we used in this paper as a case study is a Student e-Registration system.

software development methodologies
for agent-based systems. Tropos is one of the most accurate and complete agent oriented methodologies that covers software development from early requirement analysis to implementation. Lacking a proper tool to cover all five phases is one of the most essential deficiencies of Tropos. In this paper, we proposed a method to use existing JACK development tool, as a complete tool for Tropos. We do this through mapping all concepts of Tropos to existing JACK concepts resulting EJACK development tool. EJACK seems to be an appropriate Figure 3: The late requirements diagram tool to support Tropos, duo to experimental results. Several open points still remain. We should consider concepts as reuse during all the activities during development process. In addition other important software engineering concepts, such as testing, debugging, deployment, and maintenance should be considered in Tropos. Additionally, some important software engineering issues such as quality assurance, estimating guidelines, and supporting management decisions are not supported by this methodology. In a higher stage, this work and similar ones may contribute another step towards developing the next generation of agent-oriented methodologies.
