Abstract
Agents do not work in isolation; instead they work in cooperative groups to accomplish their assigned tasks. In a multi-agent information system, we assume that each of the agents has and acquires knowledge. We further assume that it is important and useful to be able to share this knowledge and to provide useful knowledge sources to enable activities such as comparison shopping, meeting scheduling, and supply-chain management.
