WADE is basically based on JADE
WADE adds to JADE two main features which are given below.
1) The possibility for agents extending the WorkflowEngineAgent class (that on its turn extends jade.core.Agent) to execute tasks defined as workflows by means of the Wolf graphical development environment. The tutorial available on the WADE web site (http://jade.tilab.com/wade/doc/tutorial/WADE-Tutorial.pdf) provides a step by step description about that.
2) An architecture and additional mechanisms that facilitate the administration of a WADE based application such as the possibility to start a platform distributed on several hosts from a central point specifying which containers to activate and where (in which hosts) and which agents to activate and where (in which containers).
