Reviews

"Effective use of intelligent information technologies becomes a necessary goal for all, and an outstanding collection of latest research associated with intelligent agent applications and Web services is presented in this book."

– Vijayan Sugumaran, Oakland University, USA

Presented by Sugumaran, the 14 chapters contained in this volume explore agent-based applications in the domains of e-learning, online auctions, Web services, and semantic technologies.

– Book News Inc. (2008)

Throughout this book, the editor provides a series of thought-provoking papers related to intelligent agents and their applications. At the start he recognizes the 'increased focus on intelligent information technologies that are designed to enable users to accomplish complex tasks with relative ease', and accordingly he aims to provide 'an in-depth collection of cutting-edge research on the modelling, implementation, and financial, environmental and organizational implications of this dynamic topic.'

– E Vilalta y Perdomo, Tecnologico de Monterrey, Campus Irapuato, Journal of the Operational Research Society, Vol. 61, No. 11
