Abrégé: In this paper we introduce net components as means to structure Petri net based agent interaction protocols. We provide a tool for easy application of net components to nets. By this we facilitate the construction of nets and unify their look. Net components can be used to derive code for interaction protocols from a subset of extended AUML interaction protocol diagrams. This allows for a smooth integration of some traditional software development specification approaches with high-level Petri nets. By using net components we do not only unify the structure of Mulan agent protocols but also achieve to build a common language within a developers community who share the net components.[link]
