A multi-agent system for distributed information retrieval on the World Wide Web
Keith Clark, Vasilios S. Lazarou · 2002
In this paper a novel approach concerned with the general framework of information management, is presented. We use a Multi-Agent system to cope with the problem of distributed information retrieval. The distributed information retrieval task deals with the collection of information from multiple and usually heterogeneous information sources that exist in a distributed environment, which in our case is the world wide web.
