Abstract

The paper deals with the practical issues of the formation and analysis of a tool suite designed for the development of agent-oriented software operating under resource constraints. The suggested tools are based on the expansion of the concept of commitment by adding a time parameter as the condition of commitment feasibility for the interaction of agents (inter-agent communications). Thus the concept of a temporary commitment is introduced. In addition, an event-driven consensus for a multi-agent system (MAC) is considered, acknowledgment protocols are used to ensure predictability in real-time. The architecture of the instrumental platform is proposed for the development of multi-agent software to operate on a target real-time system. The proposed development tools comply with the specifications: FIPA, RTSJ. Certain aspects of dynamic analysis are considered, metrics such as the resource usage are determined - various time indicators of the designed MAC, the memory usage; the influence of the characteristics of the underlying software layers; the dependence of the performance and resource consumption of the agent-oriented application on the build mode of the executable code.
