JADE Multi-agent Middleware Applied to Contribute to Certificate Management of Students

Abstract

In this article, we present a multi-agent approach that aims to design, modeling and implementation of an application "smart school". Indeed Several institutions adopt the computerized management of education to meet the needs of students using multi-agent systems. They have the ability to act simultaneously in a shared environment. The purpose of this approach is to automate some administrative services of education, based on the theory of distributed artificial intelligence (DAI) and multi-agent systems (MAS). This multi-agent application integrates entities called agents that cooperate and communicate them to perform specific tasks. Our system is based on the middleware JADE (Java Agent DEvelopment Framework) used for the implementation and agents management. This model based on multi-agent systems is tested on the personal data of an experiment conducted with the students of Sultan Moulay Slimane University in Beni Mellal.
