Abstract

The Peer-to-Peer (P2P) approach is considered an innovative paradigm in distributed computing. Nevertheless, P2P tools are not able to exchange complex data and to deal with heterogeneity and data management problems. In order to overcome some of these limitations, this paper proposes to use an agent based cooperative information system. We describe the fundamental agent roles inside the system: mediator, facilitator, planner and wrapper. In particular, the mediator plays the main role in generating simple data management operations (transactions) according to its local knowledge.
