This book introduces the main concepts and techniques of multi-agent oriented programming, (MAOP) which supports the multi-agent systems paradigm at the programming level. MAOP provides a structured approach based on three integrated dimensions, which the book examines in detail: the agent dimension, used to design the individual (interacting) entities; the environment dimension, which allows the development of shared resources and connections to the real world; and the organization dimension, which structures the interactions among the autonomous agents and the shared environment. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book puts the approach into practice using the JaCaMo programming model and platform. It employs an easy-to-follow, step-by-step style, showing solutions to increasingly complex scenarios. The book also discusses the integration of MAOP into existing technologies and application domains, including mobile computing, web-based computing, and robotics. Finally, it considers artificial intelligence (AI)–related classical problems from an MAOP perspective and discusses an agent-oriented approach to software engineering.\u003c\/p\u003eList of Figures\u003cbr\u003eList of Research Corners\u003cbr\u003eList of Technology Corners\u003cbr\u003eAcknowledgments\u003cbr\u003e1 Introduction\u003cbr\u003e2 An Overview of Multi-Agent Oriented Programming\u003cbr\u003e3 Getting Started\u003cbr\u003e4 The Agent Dimension\u003cbr\u003e5 The Environment Dimension\u003cbr\u003e6 Programming an Agent and Its Environment\u003cbr\u003e7 Programming Multiple Agents Interacting in an Environment\u003cbr\u003e8 The Organization Dimension\u003cbr\u003e9 Programming Organizations of Situated Agents\u003cbr\u003e10 Integration with Other Technologies\u003cbr\u003e11 Wrap-Up and Perspectives\u003cbr\u003eSolutions to Exercises\u003cbr\u003eReferences\u003cbr\u003eIndexOlivier Boissier is Full Professor of Computer Science at Mines Saint-Etienne (France).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRafael H.
