Overview
AMF provides an ABM meta-model representation, editor, generator and development environment. The AMF Acore meta-model is similar to EMF Ecore and defined in Ecore, but provides high-level support for complex agents.
AMF generates complete executable models for Escape, Ascape and Repast Simphony, as well as Java Skeletons and Interfaces, JUnit test cases and documentation and is easily extensible to support additional targets.
Getting Started
Understanding AMF
You should have a sense for how the overall AMF approach works. Take a look through the Meta-Model. Don't worry about too much about the details.
Tutorials
Run an Exiting Model
You can create an Escape project following these steps.
Older Tutorial
You can also look here for a tutorial that set's up an Ascape and Simphony project. (Same caveats as below.)
AMP From Scratch
[AMP/UserGuide/FromScratch | Here] is another tutorial, in which a model is built from scratch. (In progress)
Explore Other Models
There are three example projects that have already been setup for each of the current target platforms. If you try out the Ascape or Simphony projects, you'll need to install the relevant targets.
Import from CVS
- Import the CVS projects from the AMP project repository. For help, see this page. For repository details, see http://eclipse.org/amp/developers/repositoryDetails.php. These are the example projects:
org.eclipse.amp/org.eclipse.amp.amf/examples/org.eclipse.amp.amf.examples.ascape org.eclipse.amp/org.eclipse.amp.amf/examples/org.eclipse.amp.amf.examples.escape org.eclipse.amp/org.eclipse.amp.amf/examples/org.eclipse.amp.amf.examples.repast
- Right-click on the models to execute them.
- Play around with the model attribute settings and behavior (Acts).
Design a Model
We don't have a tutorial for AMF yet, sorry. (You could write one though!) But for now, the following tutorial is pretty close to current AMF functionality. (The icons and minor features have changed.)
