Abstract
An efficient XML query method is suggested for a distributed web environment. We develop an algorithm that promptly matches host’s ontology and remote site’s DTD. Then, a mobile agent system is constructed such that each agent maintains the recently matched ontology. For XML query, each agent generates remote-specific queries based on its matched ontology and returns the search results back to the host. The prompt match, remote-specific query, and autonomous mobile process can greatly reduce the search time and transmission overhead.
