OMNI is a framework for modelling agent organizations, that allows the balance of global organizational requirements with the autonomy of individual agents. OMNI also integrates the norms that regulate interaction between agents, as well as the contextual meaning of those interactions into one framework. In order to make design of the multi-agent system manageable, we distinguish three levels of abstraction with increasing implementation detail.
