Publish a Jason Agent BDI Capacity as Web Service REST and SOAP

In this paper, we discussed a new strategy to deploy the couple web service (REST and SOAP type) and BDI agent in a Java SE environment in order to obtain an Intelligent SOA. Deploying the BDI agent in a modern Web-App server or application server is a difficult task. The first reflex or first track on this deployment to create the pair web service and agent is to use the JEE server. But, there are alternative lightweight methods and simpler to build web services using Java SE, it is the use of APIs Non-Blocking Input Output (NIO API) technology Java. So our strategy is to exploit the Java NIO API framework, in particular, the NIO API Grizzly and Netty to run the BDI Agent and Web Service pairs in the same environment. Grizzly is used to take the role of a server of our application running in a Java SE environment in the one side. While Netty played the role of middleware to ensure communication between web services and BDI agents in the other side. The results of the proposed approach are BDI agents called Jason-RS and Jason-WS that are able to publish their capabilities in a web browser as a web service running on a Java SE environment. And, to prove our strategy, we conducted a case study using Jason-RS and Jason-WS. This has proven that the proposed approach provides intelligent SOA based on the pair BDI agent and the web service technology.
