Abstract. Holonic multiagent systems (hmas) offers a promising software engineering approach for developing applications in complex domains characterized by a hierarchical structu...
How do design decisions impact the quality of the resulting software? In an empirical study of 52 ECLIPSE plug-ins, we found that the software design as well as past failure histo...
