Paper Abstract:
|
An Intelligent Agent Development Environment module has been written as part of the ICONS web-based knowledge management system. This module will provide both tacit and explicit knowledge to a user, where we aim to provide explicit knowledge through the use of Web Services. Web Services shall be found in UDDI registries by a search agent and then called by different types of Web Service agent. Generic Web Service agents that can call different Web Services will use an ontology to define the concepts of the call. This is a relatively simple structure that allows for easy mapping of operation parameters of arbitrary content and structure. The same agent can then call several Web Services through one set of parameters, or map the replies to a Java object. The aim of this paper is to describe the ontology and processes used to call the Web Services through the agents. |
