Abstract

In this paper, the compositional multi-agent modelling framework DESIRE is not only successfully used to develop a conceptual specification of the simple agents discussed in (Cesta et al. 1996), but also to simulate the behaviour in a dynamic environment. In the DESIRE framework, a conceptual specification, which provides a high-level view of an agent, has enough detail for automatic prototype generation. The prototype implementation of the conceptual specification of the simple agents has been used to replicate and extend one of the experiments reported in (Cesta et al. 1996).
