摘要
为解决传统工作流管理系统中存在的问题,Agent技术被越来越多地引入到工作流管理系统中。针对面向系统的工作流程,结合多Agent的设计概念,从实现角度提出以多Agent为基础的工作流管理系统架构。首先介绍了模型的工作机制,并采用面向Agent的软件工程方法——Gaia建模方法进行分析与设计,依据需求定义了系统运作中的Agent管理本体与Agent设计基本架构,最后以会议论文管理系统为例在JADE平台下进行实现,该架构为设计人员开发基于Agent的工作流管理系统提供了参考依据。
In order to solve the problems in traditional workflow management system, Agent technology has been introducing into workflow system increasingly. In light of the system-oriented workflow and combining the design concept of multi-Agent, in the paper it puts forward a multi-Agent based workflow management system architecture from implantation attitude. It introduced the model mechanism at first, and then Gaia modelling, an agent-oriented software engineering method, was used in analyzing and designing. According to the requirement of the system operation, the agent management ontology and agent designing architecture were defined. Finally the architecture was implemented on JADE platform for a conference paper management system. This architecture can offer a reference for designers to develop Agent-based workflow management system.
