Design of a modelling language for semiotics based agent systems

Abstract

Semiotics has been used to describe computer programming and systems since 1960. The use of semiotics in information system development has not yet been seen as a mainstream paradigm although a methodology MEASUR has been established based on the semiotic framework. To evangelise the use of the semiotic framework, this paper defines a modelling language which supports systems specification by applying the Semantic Analysis and Norm Analysis methods in MEASUR. During the design of the language, the Model-Drive Development approach is used as a reference and a meta-model of semiotic agents is defined. The detail language constructs are presented and illustrated with an example of inter-agent tracking.
