| Abstract | In this chapter tools, especially agent platforms, and relevant standards for realizing agent-oriented applications are presented. As there are a plenty of different agent platforms available the objective here is not to present an exhausting platform comparison but to introduce meaningful platform categories, relate them to existing standards and illustrate them with typical representatives. The categorization helps to understand the existing heterogeneous agent technology landscape and is one integral part of a proposed selection method. This method reflects the fact that different problem domains may demand very different solutions in terms of the used methodology and underlying agent platform. It sketches the important steps that can be used to find a suitable methodology and agent platform fitting to the problem domain at hand. |
