JADE

JADE (Java Agent Development Framework) is a software platform that helps developers create autonomous computer programs called "agents" which can communicate, cooperate, and perform tasks independently. These agents are designed to handle specific jobs, like gathering information or managing resources, without needing constant human oversight. JADE provides tools and standards based on multi-agent system concepts, making it easier to build flexible, distributed applications for tasks such as simulations, negotiations, or automation. Essentially, it simplifies developing intelligent software agents that can work together seamlessly in complex systems.
