Uma Proposta de Agilidade para Incorporação em Métodos Orientados a Agentes: um estudo de caso para jogos educacionais

Abstract

The concepts of the agile manifesto have been widely used in the market and in the academic area as a proposal to solve problems related to the traditional development process. Within the scope of agent-oriented methodologies, more and more agile methodologies have been adapted to improve the traditional system development model. Some agent-oriented methodologies have already undergone transformation, such as PASSI and Ingenias, which incorporate the concept of agile development. The objective of this master’s dissertation is to propose a set of activities, artifacts and agile practices, used in agile development, to support the proposal of agile adaptation of the agent-oriented cascade model: Organization - based MultiagentSystems Engineering (O-MaSE). In order to implement the agile proposal, agile O-MaSE framework, the phases of the O-MaSE methodology were maintained, with their activities and tasks, and fragments of agile frameworks were added: Scrum andExtreme Programming (XP). The agile proposal was used in the case study, along with two other agile methodologies oriented to agents: agilePassi and Ingenias-Scrum, which were applied by Novo (2018) in his work. Thus, new evidence was added to the data obtained in their studies, forming a broad basis for making comparisons between the methods.
