Abstract
This chapter presents the INGENIAS framework for Social Coordination. INGENIAS is an agent-oriented methodology that comprehends a modeling language, a development process, and a set of tools. The modeling language captures the MAS specification as well as the requirements of the system to be developed. The development process is an iterative process producing the necessary artifacts based on the elements captured by the modeling language. The tools conform the INGENIAS Development Kit. It includes, among others, a specification editor and a code generator. Key features of INGENIAS are the extensive use of visual diagrams for modeling, grounding on the BDI concepts of agents, and translation to a JADE based architecture called the INGENIAS Agent Framework.
