Extending PASSI to model multi-agent systems product lines.

Multi-agent System Product Lines (MAS-PLs) have emerged to integrate software product lines (SPLs) and agent-oriented software engineering techniques by incorporating their respective benefits and helping the industrial exploitation of agent technology. In this paper, we present a new approach for modeling MAS-PLs, focusing the domain analysis stage. Our approach is based on PASSI methodology and incorporates some extensions to address agency variability.
