Web Services Based Information Searching Multi-Agent System for Health Care Services

Abstract

Nowadays, most of the Internet user use to search whatever they want on the Web as the Web offers enormous information resources of different sectors 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 standardsbased realization of the service-oriented computing (SOC) paradigm, which has emerged in response to a fundamental shift in the way enterprises conduct their business. Searching desired specific information and facts on the Web cannot be completed by single Web Service. So there should be a possibility to combine existing related Web Services in order to fulfill user requests. Moreover, selecting the most suitable operation (web method) and invoking it with required parameters is an important need. 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 Information Searching framework. The implementation and testing of this system utilizes the real datasets of clinics in the Yangon area
