Leszek Kiełtyka, Robert Kucęba, Rafał Niedbał · Americas Conference on Information Systems · 2006
Basic tasks and problems of market information management in economic organizations are presented in this paper. Identifying these problems – on the basis of the conducted survey – became the base to develop the general architecture of the agent system aiding market information management. AgentBuilderPro1.4® software of Acronymics, Inc. was chosen to be the development environment. Functions that the particular groups of software agents fulfill in the systems are explained on the basis of the proposed architecture. Particular attention has been paid to present the solutions applied to acquire data for the systems by the Information Agents being part of the Information Gathering Subsystem.
