Petri nets have proven to be a valuable tool for modelling concurent systems. As such they should be suitable for modelling agent and multi-agent systems, as these are inherently concurrent. Nevertheless there are not many systems that allow modelling of the whole multi-agent system in Petri nets. The use of Petri nets is usually limited to sub-problems, such as verification of interaction protocols.
This paper describes the main concepts of PNagent -- a tool for modelling BDI agents using the formalism of Object Oriented Petri Nets (OOPN). PNagent allows development, testing and running software agents in a consistent graphical environment. The framework is suitable for prototyping and experiments with both multi-agent applications and the particular agent architecture itself. At the same time, thank to the formal nature of its underlying paradigm, it provides means for verification of agent's properties.
