Agent technology
Up one level
An agent is able to act, is autonomous, proactive, communicates with others, and perceives its environ-ment. An agent can determine which behaviour to follow (depending on its goals, its internal state and its knowledge from the environment) and not because someone else forces to do something.
Applying agents enables quite naturally to: (1) capture deeper constraints on what services are willing to offer, thereby capturing richer requirements for service composition, (2) discover trustworthy services, (3) negotiate within teams of providers and (4) judge the compliance of service providers with their contracts regarding specific compositions.
