Abstract: |
In multiagent-based
simulation systems the agent pro- gramming paradigm is adopted for simulation. This simu- lation approach offers
the promise to facilitate the design and development of complex simulations,
both regarding the
distinct simulation actors and the simulation envi-
ronment itself. We introduce the simulation middleware
PlaSMA which
extends the JADE agent framework with a simulation control that ensures
synchronization and pro- vides a world model based on a formal ontological descrip- tion of the respective application domain. We illustrate the
benefits of an ontology grounding for simulation de- sign and discuss further gains to be expected from
recent advances in ontology engineering, namely the adaption of foundational ontologies and modelling-patterns. |
