Abstract
Electronic commerce (e-commerce) may be defined as the entire set of processes that support transaction activities on a network and involve information analysis. These activities spawn product information and display events, services, providers, consumers, advertisers, support for transactions, brokering systems for a variety of services and actions (e.g., finding certain products, finding cheaply priced products, etc.) The potential of agent-based systems has not been realized yet, in part, because of the lack of understanding how the agent technology support business-to-business e-commerce processes. This report is to investigate the current state of agent technology and the feasibility of applying agent-based computing to business-to-business (b2b) e-commerce.Citation
