Multi-Agent Research Tool (MART) Second Phase Madhukar Kumar

Project Plan  Project statement  Multi-agent system that helps a researcher/author in writing an article by automatically searching and dynamically generating links while an article is being written.  Action Items from the last presentation. Be able to filter search by websites, document format and date. Formal requirement specification.

Updated Project Plan  New cost estimate  Effort = 3.2*(2.500)1.05 = 8.4 person-months (earlier it was 4.9 months)  Earlier the estimated size was approx 1500 LOC.  Time = 2.5*(8.4)0.38 = 7.9 months (earlier it was 4.6 months)  Productivity = 2500/7.9 = 316 LOC-month (earlier it was 326 LOC-month)  Staff = 8.4/7.9 = 1 person (Earlier 1 person)

Architecture Design – Search Algorithm  Read keywords and user preferences. If keywords and user preferences have not been defined by the user then read the typed article and extract words.  Filter out words like “if”, “a”, “the” etc and create objects (KeyObject) for all other words. Store the frequency of use, ranking and actual word in the objects.

Architecture Design – Search Algorithm  Search with following schema. One AgentGoogle conducts a search with all the keywords (pick top 3 from results) One AgentTeoma conducts a search with all the keywords (pick top 3 from results) One AgentGoogle with top three ranked words (pick top 5 from results) One AgentGoogle with second three (pick top 4 from results) One AgentGoogle with next two (pick top 3 from results) One AgentGoogle with last two (pick top 2 from results)

Formal Requirement Specification – USE Model

Formal Requirement Specification – USE model – System Constraints  -- Some of the keywords are also present in the RawResult  context km: AgentManager  inv keysalsoinresult:  (km.keys.name->asSet) -> intersection(km.resultfile.resultword.word->asSet)->notEmpty  -- If a word appears more number of times in the user inputted article  -- its ranking will be higher (1 is higher than 2) than a word which  -- appears lesser number of times in the article  context key : AgentManager  inv rankings :  key.keys->forAll( r,s : KeyObject | r.nooftime > s.nooftime implies r.rank < s.rank)
