2. Interface implementation model: reactive agent model

We don't go into detail about the organization of the functional core, as this is a matter for the design of computer applications. We will concentrate on the architecture of the interface. Several models have been used for this architecture over the years. Only the most widely used model, the reactive agent model, is presented here.

2.1 Presentation

The general idea of this model is to develop each interactor as an autonomous software object (or agent) and to describe the overall behavior of the interface as an organization of agents communicating with each other.

Generally speaking, an agent is a subsystem capable of reacting to stimuli and, in turn, producing stimuli. By their very nature, agents communicate with each other. The term...
