MY MISSION DURING THIS INTERNSHIP Implementation of a real-time Multi-Agent architecture essential for the construction of an Intelligent learning System. Achievements until now Following an agent methodology (TROPOS) and using an agent platform (JADE) in JAVA in a Windows environment using Eclipse Conceiving key tasks regarding database connectivity and user modeling Achievements until now  Create, modify and search an XML file in JDOM using Java language to create the learner model

INTERNSIP PROJECTS SO FAR Intelligent tutoring system architecture Agent Environment in the JADE platform Example of a JADE application Modeling learners with XML Internship projects that I have work so far

I. ITS architecture Database Agent Expert Agent Tutor Agent Learner Agent Interface Agent

II. Agent Environment in the JADE platform

AGENT ENVIRONMENT AGENTS ARE: Autonomous Proactive Social

JADE PLATFORM JADE (Java Agent Development Framework) is a software framework to develop agent-based applications.

RUN A GUI PLATFROM Cmd: Java jade. Boot –gui

III. EXAMPLE OF A JADE APPLICATION OF BUYER & SELLER AGENT TAOM4E, a tool for working TROPOS methodology in Eclipse

GOALS OF A SELLER AGENT Goals to achieve by a Seller Agent Register in Yellow Page Add books Update Catalogues of Books Propose Offers Sell Required Book

RUN A SELLER AGENT Cmd: java –classpath .\lib\jade.jar;.\bin\ jade.Boot –container Seller1:bookTrading.BookSellerAgent

GOALS OF A BUYER AGENT Goals to achieve by a Buyer Agent Submit book title Acquire list of Seller Agents from Yellow Page Choose the best price Buy book

RUN A BUYER AGENT Cmd: java –classpath .\lib\jade.jar;.\bin\ jade.Boot –container Buyer1: bookTrading.BookBuyerAgent (RING)

IV. Modeling learners with XML Create an XML File in JDOM using JAVA Modify an XML File in JDOM using JAVA Filtering an XML File in JDOM using JAVA (search for specific data)

GOALS LEFT TO ACHIEVE Based on the presented JADE example: Implementing the Database agent in the ITS Implementing the Expert agent in the ITS Implementing the curriculum agent with the rest Implementing the Tutor and Learner Agent Integrate changes with the interface
