• Agent technology
• Multiagent architecture
• Distributed artificial intelligence

Multiagent systems (MAS) development frameworks aim at facilitating the development and administration of agent-based applications. Currently relevant tools, such as JADE, offer huge possibilities but they are generally linked to a specific technology (commonly Java). This fact may limit some application domains when deploying MAS, such as low efficiency or programming language restrictions. To contribute to the evolution of multiagent development tools and to overcome these constraints, we introduce a multiagent platform based on the FIPA standards and built on top of a modern object-oriented middle-ware. Experimental results prove the scalability and the short response-time of the proposal and justify the design and development of modern tools to contribute the multiagent technology.
