Managing E-Business using Ontology-Based Multi-Agent Systems (OBMAS)

鉴于一些臭名昭著的企业倒闭影响了大量无辜的投资者，金融服务业(澳大利亚是主要出口国)的监管需要来自不同组织和地理位置的人的合作。这种合作需要复杂的工具来支持，例如智能代理。这需要对组织内部和跨组织的管理的术语和流程(语义)有一个共同的理解(现在还没有)。该项目旨在展示一种解决问题的新方法，并在重要的财务管理领域进行验证，这对澳大利亚的金融业具有重要意义。预计拟议的方法将使电子商务的所有部门受益。

In view of some notorious corporate failures affecting large number of innocent investors, financial services (in which Australia is a major exporter) regulations need the cooperation of people from diverse organisations and geographical locations. This cooperation needs to be supported by sophisticated tools, such as intelligent agents. This requires a common understanding (not available now) of terminologies and processes (semantics) of management within and across organisations. This project aims to demonstrate a new approach to solving the problem, and its validation in the important area of financial management, significant for Australia's financial industry. The proposed methodology is expected to benefit all sectors of e-business.
