Abstract

This chapter discusses the process of providing information in its most accurate, complete form to its users and the difficulties faced by the users of the current information systems. The chapter describes the impact of prevalent technologies such as the Multi-Agent Systems and the Semantic Web in the area of information supply via an example implementation and a model use case. The chapter offers a potentially more efficient and robust approach to information integration and supply process. The chapter intends to highlight the complexities inherent in the process of information supply and the role of emerging information technologies in solving these challenges.
