  <description><![CDATA[In the semantic web vision, data and information on the Web are
defined and linked so that they are both human readable and
machine understandable. Machine understandability means that
the data have been explicitly prepared for programs and
software agents to reason about and reuse.  However, most
software agents have not been designed to run in a web
environment: the agents and web components are working in

A team of three graduate students from the UMBC Computer Science and
Electrical Engineering Department developed a software agent that won
second place in the finals of the 2004 Trading Agent Competition for
Supply Chain Management held in New York City on July 22, 2004.

Advised by Professor Tim FInin, graduate students Guang Huang, Yang Yu and Xu Fei developed an agent that competed in an

  <description><![CDATA[Understanding and using the data and knowledge encoded in semantic web documents requires an inference engine. F-OWL is an inference engine for the semantic web language OWL language based on F-logic, an approach to defining frame-based systems in logic.  F-OWL is implemented using XSB and Flora-2 and takes full advantage of their features.  We describe how F-OWL computes ontology entailment and compare it with other description logic-based approaches. We also describe TAGA, a trading agent e...]]></description>

  <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[UMBCTAC is one of the top-ranking agents in the 3rd International Trading Agent Competition (TAC). A TAC game has multiple auctions running on different but interrelated resources simultaneously, and 8 trading agents will compete with each other for optimal result – making maximum profit.  The spirit of simplicity and balance is used as a guideline to solve the dynamic optimization problem in the TAC game. The hotel/airline auctions and the entertainment ticket auctions are handled separate...]]></description>
