Abstract
This chapter introduces the definition of a process for the INGENIAS methodology. It is an adaptation of the unified development process (UDP). The process adopts the organization in phases of the UDP and proposes activities and work products equivalent to the ones of UDP and suitable to develop multi-agent-systems (MAS). As INGENIAS follows a model-driven approach, these activities are largely focused on obtaining a specification of the MAS, conforming to the INGENIAS metamodel. The case study of the conference management system illustrates the application of this process to get a description of the environment and users of the system and the workflows where it will act.
