Abstract
Software agents, the one of the most exciting new developments in computer software technology that can be used for both quickly and easily building of integrated enterprise systems. In order to solve the complex problems, agents work cooperatively with other agents in heterogeneous environments to constitute Multi-Agent System (MAS). The concept of building the best component-based application, which contains components from both CORBA & DCOM, becomes very attractive. So, in this research, we will define how component CORBA can interact with DCOM by using multi-agent system. This will able to make us freedom to choose the best attributes from both systems and combine them to build the best possible application that specifically suits my environment. In this paper we are interesting to introduce a new idea of how to build a software integration tool for component-based application by using MA.
