Abstract :
Agents are goal oriented, autonomous, adaptive, and cooperative. Goal orientation is an increasingly recognized paradigm for agent modeling and development. In This work, we present Goal Net, a goal-oriented modeling method to model the goals of an agent and to model agent coordination in a multiagent environment. Goal Net also serves as a practical methodology for engineering agent oriented software systems.
