To resolve these problems, we devise a framework for evaluating and comparing agent-oriented methodologies. This framework focuses on four major aspects of a methodology: concepts and properties, notations and modelling techniques, process and pragmatics. We demonstrate the usage of the suggested framework by evaluating the GAIA methodology.
