Using Multi-agent Systems for Developing an Enterprise Modeling Aided Tool

  • Conference paper
Highlights on Practical Applications of Agents and Multi-Agent Systems (PAAMS 2013)

Abstract

GRAI Methodology is one of the three main methodologies used for enterprise modeling. GRAIMOD is a software tool being developed for supporting the methodology. A new module is being developed in GRAIMOD for treating specially Carbon management and social, societal and environmental dimensions in the enterprise performance improvement. GRAIMOD is being developed on Java architecture by using Jade a platform of multi-agents system and Jess a platform for defining and elaborating rules base. A focus is made for presenting the orientations taken in this development and difficulties met.
