This paper presents a concise description of the major features of the Jadescript language for agent-oriented programming. First, the need for a programming language intended explicitly to support the design and implementation of agents and multi-agent systems based on JADE is motivated. Then, core features which characterise the language as an agent-oriented programming language, namely, those meant to support message passing and event-driven programming, are briefly described. The description of core features uses an illustrative example to show how the language can be concretely used to program multi-agent systems, at least in simple, but significant, cases.

Abstract
This paper presents a concise description of the major features of the Jadescript language for agent-oriented programming. First, the need for a programming language intended explicitly to support the design and implementation of agents and multi-agent systems based on JADE is motivated. Then, core features which characterise the language as an agent-oriented programming language, namely, those meant to support message passing and event-driven programming, are briefly described. The description of core features uses an illustrative example to show how the language can be concretely used to program multi-agent systems, at least in simple, but significant, cases.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
