  abstract =	 {JADE is a software framework to develop agent
                  applications in compliance with the FIPA
                  specifications for interoperable intelligent
                  multi-agent systems. The goal is to simplify
                  development while ensuring standard compliance
                  through a comprehensive set of system services and
                  agents. JADE can then be considered an agent
                  middle-ware that implements an Agent Platform and a
                  development framework. It deals with all those
                  aspects that are not peculiar of the agent internals
                  and that are independent of the applications, such
                  as message transport, encoding and parsing, or agent
                  life-cycle. This paper presents the JADE software
                  describing its intended uses, as well as being a
                  walkthrough of JADE internal architecture. The main
                  architectural issues are discussed, and the major
                  design decisions are outlined.},
