Abstract:
Information Retrieval Systems are playing in important
role for every Internet user since the World-Wide-Web has started
flourishing with enormous information resources of different
sectors and trends that can give public knowledge and know-how.
As the current industrial and business trend is not only providing
knowledge but also supporting service, Web Service technology
becomes popular because it is standards-based realization of the
service-oriented computing (SOC) paradigm, which has emerged in
response to a fundamental shift in the way enterprises conduct
their business. Retrieving desired specific information and facts on
the Web cannot be done by single Web Service. So there should be
a possibility to combine existing related Web Services in order to
fulfill user requests. To compose Web Services, Multi-Agent System
can give a great help. In order to construct a Multi-Agent System
from a collection of Web Services, we propose an Agent Algorithm
and a Web Services Based IR framework. The implementation and
testing of this system utilizes the real datasets of clinics in the
Yangon area.
