  <description><![CDATA[People are an important part of many business processes. Current workflow-based implementations of business processes constrain users to the desktop environment; require them to periodically check for pending tasks; and do not support direct or synchronous people-to-people interaction. On the other hand, the wide spectrum of people collaboration tools ranging from telephones to instant messaging and to email have no provision for structured collaboration and are separate from business process...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[In recent years, the growth of Mobile Computing, Electronic
Commerce and Mobile Electronic Commerce has created a
new concept of Mobile Electronic Marketing. New marketing
models are being developed and used to target mobile

need to be overcome by these marketing models in order to
be successful and effective. This paper proposes a framework,

  <description><![CDATA[The UMBCTAC agent was one of the top ranked agents in the third international Trading Agent Com-petition (TAC'02). This paper describes and evalu-ates the key heuristics used by UMBCTAC, includ-ing the early bird heuristic, the balance heuristic, and the separation heuristic. We developed a simple gain-risk model to search safe and profitable allocations for hotel rooms and airline tickets. We also used a novel probabilistic approach to dynamically allocate entertainment tickets and bid in en...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Pervasive environments are characterized by the presence of wireless devices ranging from sensors to mobile PDA-phones to laptops. Peer-to-Peer (P2P) information sharing in such environments presents a tremendous opportunity for people and devices to exchange information such as music, pictures, documents and stock tickers with peers. Information that has a monetary value introduces a whole new set of problems for P2P interaction in pervasive environments. In this work, we present the design ...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[We describe a research project on resolving semantic differences for multi-agent systems (MAS) in electronic commerce. The approach can be characterized as follows: (1) agents in a MAS may have their own specific ontologies defined on top of a shared base ontology; (2) concepts in these ontologies are represented as frame-like structures based on DAML+OIL language; (3) the semantic differences between agents are resolved at runtime through inter-agent communication; and (4) the resolution is...]]></description>

By e-markets, we mean markets on the web (or large inter-enterprise private networks) where buyers interact and transact with sellers. e-markets also include infrastructure support and mediation services and players, such as for yellow pages, catalogs, shopping search, advertising, sales assistants, brokering, aggregation, infomediaries, reputation and trust man...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[A great deal of research and development effort has been
undertaken in recent years to integrate otherwise disconnected
manufacturing production and planning (P/E) application
software systems so that the enterprises can react quickly and
accurately to the ever changing market dynamics. In such an
integrated P/E environment it is, at times, necessary to bring in

  <description><![CDATA[A supply chain is a network of suppliers, factories, warehouses, distribution centers and retailers, through which raw materials are
acquired, transformed, produced and delivered to the customer. A
supply chain management system (SCMS) manages the
cooperation of these system components. In the computational
world, roles of individual entities in a supply chain can be
implemented as distinct agents. The functions and procedures of
a company in the real market are complicated and include...]]></description>
