Abstract
This paper aims at studying the possibility of exploiting the Intelligent Agent technology in e-government for supporting the decision making activity of government agencies. Specifically, it proposes a system to assist managers of a government agency, who plan to propose a new service, to identify those citizens that could gain the highest benefit from it. The paper illustrates the proposed system and reports some experimental results.
