Abstract

In this paper we present a runtime platform and a language supporting infomediaries (information intermediaries) in tailoring information extracted from the web to satisfy end user requirements. The language is based on a XML query language and adapts it to the case where information is obtained by aggregating parts distributed over multiple sites. The platform is based on mobile agents and acts as an intermediary between users and information providers.
