In Multi-Agent Systems with AutoGen, you will learn about the core components of agents (Generative AI models, tools, memory, orchestration), how to implement them in python code using the AutoGen framework, how to evaluate, optimize and deploy them in your applications. Overall, the book will cover:
- Core components for multi-agent systems and their implementation
- UX design principles for multi-agent systems
- Building agents to interact with various interface (web, mobile, desktop)
- Evaluating your multi-agent system using benchmarks like GAIA, GPTQ, SWEBench and your own custom benchmarks
- Performance optimization (e.g., agent-specific model tuning and parallel processing)
- Use case deep dives like data analysis, customer service, and creativity workflows.

To download a copy of this code repository, click on the Download Zip button or run the following code from your terminal.
git clone --depth 1 https https://github.com/victordibia/multiagent-systems-with-autogen.gitThis section explains how to install the pre-requisite libraries so that you can use the notebooks within this book. So that the libraries are safely installed for the context of this book, we use the python virtual environment concept.
- Install Python on your computer. Recommended versions are 3.9 through 3.12
- Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/victordibia/multiagent-systems-with-autogen.git - Go into the directory:
cd multiagent-systems-with-autogen - Create a virtual environment:
python -m venv venv - Activate the virtual environment:
. ./venv/bin/activate - Install the required libraries into this environment:
pip install -r requirements.txt - Run Jupyter Lab:
jupyter lab - Within Jupyter Lab, change directories into the respective chapter and open the python notebooks.
The code in this repo is organized into chapters (shown in the table). Each chapter contains code for the various concepts and tools discussed in the book.
