This paper describes the theoretic issues and the design of an implemented Multiagent System developed by DISI, the Computer Science Department of the University of Genova, and Ansaldo-STS, the Italian leader in design and construction of signalling and automation systems for conventional and high speed railway lines. The problem discussed in this paper is a multiagent resource allocation problem where resources are modeled as nodes in a directed, non-planar graph that agents must traverse from one start point to one end point. The goal of the multiagent system is to find a feasible allocation of resources to agents over time that emerges as the result of a sequence of local negotiation steps. The multiagent system has been implemented using JADE and exploits the JADEWeb Services Integration Gateway to access legacy applications developed by Ansaldo-STS. It has already been tested on real data and will be integrated into one of Ansaldo-STS's core business applications in a few months.
