The disconnection from wireless network is one of the most critical problems that mobile users have to face in mobile computing environment. The mobile agent technology facilitates the realization of operations in an asynchronous way and has been used in e-commerce, semantic web searches and networks management. This paper presents a new software architecture that uses mobile agents to face the problem of temporary disconnection from wireless network and that also allows the presentation of information in different types of mobile devices using XML and XSL style sheets

Handling highly dynamic scenarios as they arise in emergency situations requires lots of semantic information about the situation and an extremely flexible, selforganizing IT infrastructure that provides services that can be used to manage the situation. We show that a distributed meta level architecture is particularly suited for the implementation of such a self-organizing grid of services. This architecture (SOGOS) distinguishes between an object level and a meta level. The middleware processes of the grid are running on the object level. The meta level defines an explicitly and declaratively represented dynamic meta model that provides the semantics for the object level processes. Additionally, this level runs processes that plan, supervise and control mobile agents on the object level. The levels are linked together by reflection processes that ensure that relevant changes on the object level are reflected in the meta model and vice versa. The corresponding reflection principles provide the basis for the implementation of the selforganizing mechanisms that govern the overall system.

“…InterMarket is based on two existing software products Intershop enfinity [20] and Tracy [7], which were developed independently and are currently being used for developing e-commerce applications and mobile agent based applications, respectively. Intershop's commercial software product enfinity provides basic functions for catalog management, search mechanisms, transaction engines, and administration and reporting.…”

This paper presents work-in-progress towards the development of an intelligent mobile agent-based e-marketplace system called InterMarket. InterMarket aims at enabling mobile access and automated trading in e-marketplaces based on integration of mobile agents and intelligent decision-making agents offered as an add-on component to a commercial e-marketplace platform. The paper overviews the proposed solution and approach for InterMarket, and relates it to the existing research on mobile e-commerce agents and intelligent agent-mediated e-commerce.
