On resource profiling and matching in an agent-based virtual organization

Abstract

In our work we are designing agent based support for workers in a virtual organization. In the system under development, all resources are to be ontologically demarcated and utilized through semantically-driven information processing techniques. This paper contains preliminary considerations concerning resource profiling and ontological matching methods which we intend to utilize within the system. Two applications that we are currently developing are used to illustrate the proposed approach.
