Abstract

The aim of this paper is to present and provide a critical review of the advanced technologies that can be used in e-tourism. The main attention is paid to technologies that deal with some kind of knowledge representation. The paper tries to indentify major drawbacks that prevent wide spread use of these technologies in the tourism sector and thus points to some of the possible research areas. The paper focuses particularly on data mining, semantic web and multi-agent technologies.
