Title: The ADELFE Methodology Concepts and Definition using SPEM


1
The ADELFE MethodologyConcepts and Definition
using SPEM
  • Marie-Pierre Gleizes, Frédéric Migeon,
  • Sylvain Rougemaille, Carole Bernon,
  • Thierry Millan,

2
ADELFE 2000 ?
  • A toolkit to develop software with emergent
    functionalities
  • ADELFE Provides
  • Process
  • Notation
  • Tools

3
ADELFE Overview
  • Main characteristics
  • Specific agent-based methodology
  • ? Exploiting the AMAS Theory ? cooperation
  • ? Open systems, adaptive to changes in the
    environment
  • For engineers aware of MAS
  • Apply MDE principles
  • Principles
  • Based on RUP and standard notations (UML , AUML)
  • Top down approach
  • analysis phase - identification of agents
  • Bottom up approach
  • design phase agent design

4
SPEM (v1.1/2.0) Software Process Engineering
Metamodel
  • SPEM general characteristics
  • Provide a standard for method description,
    management, interchange, enactment, etc.
  • Provide notations and concepts for method content
    and process description
  • Promote and develop method use and re-usability
  • SPEM 2.0 new capabilities
  • Clear concerns separation
  • Method content (reusable methodological brick)
  • Process definition (a particular use of these
    bricks)
  • Re-usability
  • Method, process plug-in
  • Process pattern application
  • Process components

5
SPEM 2.0 Concepts Separation
6
ADELFE SPEM 2.0 Applied Notations
  • Process definition SPEM 2.0 notations
  • Work product use
  • Role use
  • Task use
  • Process performer (links Role use to Task use)
  • Phase activity special kind (From SPEM2.0
    base plug-in)

Implementation Phase Overview
18
SPEM 2.0 Analysis
  • Software design process
  • Semi-formal description
  • Verification, enactment (BPEL)
  • CASE tools
  • Design process orchestration
  • AOSE
  • Interoperability for agent oriented method
    contents and processes
  • Common frame, language to define agent method
  • Ease the definition of Methodological Fragments
  • Reusable Method library and plugin
  • Reusable Process components
  • ADELFE
  • Facilitate method adjustment (automatic tools)
  • Standard for publication, documentation, etc.
  • Support for end-users, web pages, orchestration
    etc.

19
ADELFE Key Steps
  • Environment characterisation
  • Entities determination (active/passive)
  • Dynamic, static, accessible, continuous, etc.
  • Definition of non cooperative situations (NCS)
  • Between the system and its environment
  • NCS kind of exceptions at the agent
    interaction level
  • Verify the AMAS adequacy
  • Agent Identification
  • Agent Design
  • UML models with stereotypes (ADELFE profile)
  • Guide to define local rules for agent behaviour
  • Cooperative attitude

20
ADELFE Perspective
  • Analysis and Design phases
  • Definition of DSML (AMAS-ML)
  • Specific concepts with specific notations
  • Add an Implementation phase
  • MDE approach
  • Model transformations chain
  • Code generation
  • Reverse Engineering
  • Living Design during the implementation phase
  • Simulation as a design tool
  • Simulation for evaluation
