The spread of the Internet of Things (IoT) is demanding new, powerful architectures for handling the huge amounts of data produced by the IoT devices. In many scenarios, many existing isolated solutions applied to IoT devices use a set of rules to detect, report and mitigate malware activities or threats. This paper describes a development environment that allows the programming and debugging of such rule-based multi-agent solutions. The solution consists of the integration of a rule engine into the agent, the use of a specialized, wrapping agent class with a graphical user interface for programming and testing purposes, and a mechanism for the incremental composition of behaviors. Finally, a set of examples and a comparative study were accomplished to test the suitability and validity of the approach. The JADE multi-agent middleware has been used for the practical implementation of the approach.

物联网（IoT）的普及要求使用强大的新架构来处理IoT设备产生的大量数据。在许多情况下，应用于IoT设备的许多现有隔离解决方案都使用一组规则来检测，报告和缓解恶意软件活动或威胁。本文介绍了一个开发环境，该开发环境允许对此类基于规则的多代理解决方案进行编程和调试。该解决方案包括将规则引擎集成到代理中，使用专门的包装代理类和带有图形用户界面的用于编程和测试目的，以及一种用于行为的增量组合的机制。最后，完成了一组实例和比较研究，以测试该方法的适用性和有效性。
