Multi-Agent System Set for Software Maintainability Design

In order to search out the useful resources about software maintainability requirement from the huge contents in the rapid development of Internet, an intelligent decision-making model in software maintainability design is used in this paper. By introducing the Agent technique, intelligent decision-making model can rationally evaluate the affections between all indexes to select the best design scheme. The model mainly consists of two steps: The first one is Data-Mining and building information warehouse about software maintainability analysis. The second one is reasoning based on cases and evaluates the maintainability index. Giving the task to main-Agent, the main Agent communicates with the sub-Agents and allocates the task to all of them. The precedent warehouse not only instructs Agent to cooperate with other Agents, but also supplies it with the datum of intelligent actions. The Agent technology applied in software maintainability design. It’s proved that it’s an effective way to evaluate the scheme of maintainability design.
