Abstract
Several modeling techniques exist to represent agent interaction protocols mostly based on work done in distributed systems. These modeling techniques do not take the agent features such as the autonomy into account. Agent Interaction Protocol designers are now considering specific modeling techniques that contain these features. In this paper, we present the second version of the Agent UML interaction diagrams dedicated to interaction protocols, and based on UML 2.0.
