I currently work in the team ACACIA, at the French National Institute for Research in Computer Science and Control (INRIA) Sophia Antipolis. My Ph.D project is " Software Agents for the Web Mining, application in the technology and science watch". This is a collaborated project between our team and French Center of Science and Technology for Construction. This work concerns the multi-agents system for the information intelligent searching, extracting to make semantic annotations of Web documents. The object of thesis is exploiting MAS to collect, capture, filter and structure the content of the Web coming from several information sources. Agents will be guided by ontologies.

Integrating external sources in a corporate semantic web managed by a multi-agent system

Abstract: We first describe a multi-agent system managing a corporate memory in the form of a corporate semantic web. We then focus on a newly introduced society of agents in charge of wrapping external HTML documents that are relevant to the activities of the organization, by extracting semantic Web annotations using tailored XSLT templates.
