%X This paper surveys recent research on programming languages and development tools for Multi-Agent Systems. It starts by addressing programming languages (declarative, imperative, and hybrid), followed by integrated development environments, and finally platforms and frameworks. To illustrate each of these categories, some systems were chosen based on the extent to which European researchers have contributed to their development. The current state of these systems is described and, in some cases, indications of future directions of research are given.
