Popis: Multi-agent techniques have become mature technologies with many tools, programming languages, and methodologies currently available. As a result, it is a practical approach for the development of complex AI systems. However, there are still challenges in developing an interface that enables a more natural communication interface between software agents and human agents, for example, using natural language. We believe chatbot technologies can provide the support needed to face this challenge. In this paper, we propose an approach to the integration of multi-agent systems and chatbot technologies named Dial4JaCa. The resulting integration makes it possible to apply both those technologies together to a variety of domains. In this particular work, we use JaCaMo as a multi-agent programming platform and Dialogflow as a chatbot platform. We evaluate the Dial4JaCa integration using two different multi-agent applications.
