Recent advances in Web and mobile computingtechnologies provide users with a vast amount ofinformation and services such as news, shopping, music,movies, and video games. These services can be providedwith different qualities in terms of response time, price topay, resource type (e.g. PDA or mobile phone), and audioand video reproduction quality. These factors must beconsidered in order to achieve an acceptable level ofquality of the required services. However, currently thereare no standard criteria to assess the quality of suchservices. In this paper, we propose novel agent-basedcriteria that include methods for assessing the quality ofservices and resources. These criteria, based on supplychain methods, enable agents to select and executerequests appropriately, depending on the quality ofservice and the underlying system's capability. Theproposed approach is generic and can be applied todifferent domains such as e-commerce, m-commerce, andmultimedia applications.
