Interaction Protocols (IPs) are necessary to specify and control the conversation of software agents in open multi agent systems. This report shows a prototype of PAUL (Plug-In for AgentUML-Linking) which enables the execution of IPs based on the Agent Unified Modeling Language (AgentUML), the Eclipse Modeling Framework (EMF) and the open source Java-based Opal system. PAUL enables developers to implement agent conversation easily and quickly by just attaching application-specific code to a model of an interaction protocol and executing this interaction protocol. |
