Abstract

Internet is the focus of the intelligent agent applications. The current status of intelligent agent for the World Wide Web is still in its infancy, but like the Web itself, is evolving constantly. Several agents are being designed and implemented for a variety of tasks in diverse range of applications: managing e-mail, navigating and retrieving information from the Internet, online shopping, electronic business, monitoring stock prices or currency exchanges, etc. In this paper, we present and describe an intelligent service agent that assists an NBA scouting agent in his/her work. The particularity of our agent is not only it retrieves relevant information about NBA players from the Internet for the scouting agent but also it derives metadata from that information, which consist of player performance evaluation and player statistics prediction.
