This should enable a precise
matching concept, so that the formation of ad hoc collaborations on a global scale
is rendered possible.
Recently Mateos et al. (2005) discussed the use of MoviLog for developing intelligent
agents that interact with Web services. Mateos et al. are extending MoviLog to
handle ontologies written in DARPA Agent Markup Language + Ontology Inference
Layer (DAML+OIL) a Web resource description language that extends RDF.
Regarding the use of intelligent agents and Semantic Web services, a lot of research
has to be done. Hopefully, the results of this research will be generally accepted,
so that people can focus on the business context and not on useless Babel-like
confusion.
Until now the focus has been on processes, workflows, and the possible use of Web
services or intelligent agents to render the processes more dynamic and flexible.
However, ICT treats also another aspect of the organisation: information.
