Abstract

Following software engineering approaches for the Semantic Web (SW) and also Hendler’s vision [3], I believe that the SW will not be a unique large complex Web, but it will be composed, mainly, of several small contextualized domain applications. These domain applications will be, in my opinion, Multi-Agent Systems (MAS) [5]. MAS have emerged as a promising approach for the development of information systems, which are constituted of cooperative goal-oriented problem-solving entities (named agents) [6]. Agent-based computing is rapidly emerging as a powerful technology for the development of distributed and complex information systems.
