- Abstract
- Agent technology has recently become one of the most vibrant and faster growing areas in information technology. Within this booming area, intelligent information agents are attracting particular attention from the research and development community as well as from industry and user communities interested in everyday private and professional applications. This monographic text is the first systematic state-of-the-art survey on intelligent information agents. 18 coherently written chapters by leading authorities provide complementary coverage of the relevant issues organized in 4 parts: cooperative information systems and agents; rational information agents and electronic commerce; adaptive information agents; mobile agents and security. In addition, the volume editor has provided a detailed introductory survey chapter, motivational introductions to the 4 parts, and a comprehensive bibliography listing more than 700 entries
