Abstract

In the last years, multiagent systems have been proposed to solve a wide range of applications in distributed contexts, as they provide many advantages, such as parallelism, robustness, and scalability. A key element for the performance and reliability of the multiagent system is to design carefully the interaction and synchronization among the agents. Particularly, debugging and monitoring multiagent systems is a challenging task due to the number of agents involved and the complex communication patterns that they may exhibit. In this paper, we present a 3D interactive monitoring framework that we have developed to observe how the agents in a multiagent system communicate among themselves and other interesting events. It offers desirable features, such as the possibility of analyzing communications and events in real-time and also off-line, or filtering relevant events using queries. Besides, the framework can be easily customized and extended in order to debug a variety of multiagent systems.
