N2 - In this paper we present the MAPa language for expressing coordination and communication between agents in multi-agent systems. This is accomplished by denning patterns of dialogues between groups of agents, expressed as protocols. Our protocols are flexible and directly executable. Furthermore, our language allow us to specify the connection between communication and knowledge management in a way that is independent of the specific reasoning techniques used.
