A Multi-Agent System (MAS) is a system composed of multiple interacting intelligent agents. MAS can be used to solve problems that are difficult or impossible for an individual agent to solve. The different characteristics of MAS help in solving highly complex distributed problems. One of the important characteristics of MAS is its cooperative nature. This character helps different agents to interact with each other by exchanging messages. One of the major challenges in MAS is quantifying the cooperation between agents. This paper presents a framework for the quantification of cooperation between agents in MAS. We propose a methodology which helps to quantify the cooperation in the early stages of software development using a UML sequence diagram and a mathematical model. The proposed techniques are illustrated with the help of a case study. The numerical results we got were quite satisfactory.Keywords

An Object-Oriented approach to the design of On Line Analytical Processing (OLAP) System is defined and then used to describe the estimation of its performance. The use of Unified Modeling Language (UML) to model the structure and behavior of OLAP System is demonstrated as a case study. The UML model is used to derive a performance simulation model which is then evaluated using ARENA Simulation Software. This approach demonstrates a flexible way to assess the performance of an OLAP System designed and implemented using Object-Oriented concepts.Keywords
