Abstract :
Current ICT application domains, such as Web services and autonomic computing, call for highly flexible systems, capable of adapting to changing operational environments as well as to user needs. Multi-agent system framework do include mechanisms that make flexibility and adaptability possible. In our research we focus on how to take into account environmental constraints and stakeholder needs in the design of software agent capabilities
