A virtual e-retailing environment in GOLEM
Stefano Bromuri, Visara Urovi, Pedro Contreras, Kostas Stathis · 2008
We present a prototype multi-agent system whose goal is to support a 3D application for e-retailing. The prototype demonstrates how the use of agent environments can be amongst the most promising and flexible approaches to en-gineer e-retailing applications. We illustrate this point by showing how the agent environment GOLEM uses seman-tic web concepts to develop the e-retailing application. In this context we describe the features of GOLEM that allow a user to become an avatar and explore the environment by searching and dynamically discovering new products and services.
