Aplicação de métodos orientados a agentes para jogos educacionais: um estudo de caso

Abstract

Agent-oriented methods have been used in the development of systems in different areas of knowledge presenting advantages and disadvantages. Some disadvantages include: great effort, inflexibility, high cost, time and difficulty to adapt to the scope of problems. The objective of this work is to conceptualize and evaluate agent-oriented methods that explore traditional and agile development methods to construct a medical educational game. These methods were used to implement the medical game MEDEDUC by Computer Science students of a class of Artificial Intelligence from the public university of the state of Rio de Janeiro in 2017. This work was inspired in a study done by a master's student, Ferreira (2016), who compared other methods. Thus, new evidences were added to the data obtained in his work, forming a broader basis for methods comparisons. Three methods were used in the present work: i. INGENIAS, is a traditional method of developing multi-agent systems and uses a traditional development process; ii. INGENIAS Scrum, is a method based on the agile development process for multi-agent systems and iii. AgilePASSI, is a method based on the agile development process for multi-agent systems.
