Abstract :
In this article, two new implementations for behaviours in JADE are presented. These new behaviours, while being able to reproduce the functioning of the old JADE´s behaviours, allow the user to define priorities. This fact is of vital importance for several multiagent applications. Finally, a test was developed to show that the performance of the new behaviours is similar to the original ones.
