Abstract
In this paper, we present a cooperative agent model used by the ADELFE method to design adaptive multi-agent systems. This method is based on object-oriented and agent-oriented process (Rational unified process) and notations (UML and AUML). From the static viewpoint, agents are described as classes, the structure of which is constrained by using stereotypes with a strong semantic on the accessibility to the different modules composing a cooperative agent. From the dynamic viewpoint, communications between agents are specified using AUML protocol diagrams. The functional and structural agent model can therefore easily lead to code generation, and then fill the gap between design and implementation phases, as proposed in the MDA (model driven architecture) framework.
