Abstract

The development of agent-based systems musttake into account interactions, carefully modelling andengineering them. Roles represent a good concept thatcan help designers and developers dealing withinteractions. So far, several role approaches for agentshave been proposed. This paper presents a survey on themost important existing approaches. This surveyevaluates the above approaches presenting their maincharacteristics and comparing them each other to find outhow they provide support for analysis, design,implementation, interoperability and openness. Also thesupport for a formal notation is evaluated. This surveydoes not try to find out the best role approach, but toexpose to designers and developers advantages anddrawbacks of several approaches, so that they canrecognize the conditions under which their use ispreferable rather than others.
