The generative approach is one of the most productive ways to promote automatic reuse in software product lines, associated with Domain Engineering techniques and methodologies. The multi-agent paradigm aims to provide solutions to approach the growing complexity of software that should operate in non-predictable environments or exposed to fast changes. To obtain the benefits of automatic reuse in multi-agent system families, we need appropriate methods for the multi-agent paradigm, main study object of Multi-agent Domain Engineering. This work proposes GENMADEM, an ontology-based methodology for generative reuse in Multi-agent Domain Engineering whose main products are ontology-based domain models, Domain Specific Languages (DSLs) and application generators. It also contributes with ONTOGENMADEM, an ontology composed by an ontology and a plug-in to the ontology editor Protégé that supports the application of GENMADEM, aiding the analysis, design and implementation of DSLs. A case study that consists of the development of a DSL and a generator design for the domain of information filtering and retrieval is also presented with the goal of evaluation of the methodology.
