1. An Investigation into High-Level Control Mechanism For Self Adaptive software Agents Change Negotiation Nagwa Badr E-mail:cmsnbadr@livjm.ac.uk Director of study: Prof. A.Taleb bendiab

2. Scope Motivation Related Topics Aim & Objectives Work Plan

3. Motivation Over the recent years, research in adaptive software and software evolution has seen rapid development.Self-adaptive software need to coordinate,manage and negotiate the enactment of a given change plan for saving execution of such unpredictable systems. The scope of system self adaptation is still limited and no provision is made to manage a system,s proposed change plan or even its impact on other software component

4. Related Topics Self-Adaptive Software Exception Negotiation

5. COOrdination Language (COOL) Allow the user to : 1- Define Agent. 2- Manage communication between agent. 3- Structured interaction amongst these Agent. 4- Use coordination protocol called conversation classes for structured interaction.

6. Examples

8. Aim & Objectives Aim To investigate the development of the negotiation mechanism required for self- adaptive software through coordinated negotiation.

9. Objectives Formulation of the general requirement for coordination Support for self Adaptive Software Agents. Development of coordination language for self Adaptive Software Agents. Generalization of the requirement for coordination support for self Adaptive Software Agents.

10. Work Plan 1.Literature survey of: (a) Self-adaptive Software agent (b) Self-adaptive software with specific focus on coordination and negotiation. (c) Coordination language:COOL. 2. Implementation coordination language: - Specification the requirements for coordination language. -Implementation of description language to associate task to agent. -Evaluation of the coordination language.. 3.Dissemination of the results and thesis preparation.
