Introduction in JADE

JADE (Java Agent DEvelopment Framework) is a software framework

implemented in Java. It simplifies the development of multi-agent systems, through a
middleware that complies with the FIPA specifications and through a set of tools that
supports the debugging and deployment phases.
In order to download the installation kit, go to jade.tilab.com and download the
archive. The latest version of JADE is JADE 4.4.0.
JADE agents are based on various types of behaviors. The most used
behaviors are one-shot behaviors and cyclic behaviors.
Use the attached Documentation folder to learn about JADE programming.
Tasks:
1) Create an agent, which displays its local name.
2) Create an agent, which displays the command line arguments, received as
parameters.
3) Create an agent that has as interface (GUI) a JFrame with a TextArea,
where it displays its name, at setup() time.
4) Create two agents: one of them sends messages to the other, using a
Cyclic Behavior, and the other receives the messages.
