Title: An Introduction to Agent Oriented Software Engineering with INGENIAS
Location: Department of Computer Science, Fred Brooks Building, Room 141
Description: Agent Oriented Software Engineering introduces a set of methods and tools for the development of Multi-Agent Systems. Literature shows there are many possible alternatives, namely ADELFE, Prometheus, MaSE, or INGENIAS, to cite some. In principle, any of these alternatives can help to create a system, and research results prove this premise. However, the scale of development efforts is a different issue. What is the complexity of those developments? Can all agent-oriented methodologies address long term development? During the talk, we will discuss this issue using the INGENIAS methodology as an example. The talk will briefly introduce the methodology and will consider the potential of INGENIAS compared to other alternatives. The talk will include videos and a live demo of a MAS construction with INGENIAS.

Speaker: Jorge J. Gomez-Sanz received a degree in software engineering and a Ph.D. in computer science from the Universidad Complutense de Madrid (UCM), Spain. He is a full professor at the UCM and participates in industrial technology transfer projects. His research focuses mainly on developing multi-agent systems following software engineering practices. In this line of research, he is responsible for the development of the INGENIAS methodology and its support tools. His research interests also include as model driven engineering and software language engineering.
