Title
Validating Requirements Using Gaia Roles Models.
Abstract
This paper presents a method that aims at assisting an engineer in transforming agent roles models to a process model. Thus, the software engineer can employ available tools to validate specific properties of the modeled system before its final implementation. The method includes a tool for aiding the engineer in the transformation process. This tool uses a recursive algorithm for automating the transformation process and guides the user to dynamically integrate two or more agent roles in a process model with multiple pools. The tool usage is demonstrated through a running example, based on a real world project. Simulations of the defined agent roles can be used to a validate the system requirements and b determine how it could scale. This way, engineers, analysts and managers can configure the processes' parameters and identify and resolve risks early in their project.
