Agents and the Semantic Web

Overview Many of the challenges inherent in bringing communicating multi-agent systems to the web require ontologies of the type being developed in DARPA's DAML program and other efforts. More importantly, the integration of agent technology and ontologies may make significant impact on the use of web services and the ability to extend programs to more efficiently perform tasks for users with less human intervention. The pieces are coming together, and thus, the semantic web of agents is no longer a science fiction future. It is a practical application on which to focus current efforts.

AI - it's been a long, long time coming

Creating or imitating life without involvement of the human body remains merely a fascination, the stuff of fiction and the silver screen. Popular fiction was fascinated with artificial intelligence long before computers were even invented.

Virtualisation: Architectual Considerations and other Evaluation Criteria

In the past several years, server virtualisation technology has moved quickly and firmly into the IT mainstream. Of the many approaches to system virtualisation available in the market today, VMware's hypervisor architecture has gained the greatest market acceptance. This paper examines the architectural issues, solution support, and enterprise readiness required when deploying such a virtualisation solution.
