Abstract

An agent system is consisted of agents that have the following properties : autonomy, social ability, reactivity, pro-activeness. It provides a good environment to an end-user. Therefore, an end-user can feel more natural and comfortable in using a computer system. However, a system developer will have difficulty because he(or she) has to follow the functions and the specification which are generally required for an agent system. Moreover, it is hard to use resources mutually and share information between agent system that are solely developed without satisfying the standardization. In this paper, we describe the requirements for and agent development tools(ADT). We also introduce the ADT that is developed to efficiently resolve the problems occurred in developing an agent system. The main properties of the ADT are : either expert or non-expert can easily interface an application to existing agent systems and effectively manage the resources that are related to the agent systems. Therefore, one can easily expand an agent system and achieve high quality of services with our ADT.
