Large language models (LLMs) are transforming how we build multi-agent systems (MAS); yet, many LLM-centric frameworks still lack the engineering rigour that agent-oriented software engineering (AOSE) provides, resulting in systems that are powerful …

This paper proposes a structured approach to integrating Large Language Models (LLMs) into Multi-Agent Systems (MAS) by revisiting and extending the fundamental Agent-Oriented Software Engineering (AOSE) concept of "roles." Traditional AOSE …
