AWESOME'007

MALLOW-AWESOME'007 wants to stimulate discussion among researchers working on agents, web services and ontologies, in order to help the identification and the definition of methodologies for integrating them. The realisation of distributed, open, dynamic and heterogeneous software systems is a challenge that involves many facets, from formal theories to software engineering and practical applications, and scientists in Semantic Web, Web Services, Agents and Ontologies are attacking this problem from different perspectives. The workshop provides a discussion forum for collecting and comparing such diverse experiences with the aim of fostering cross fertilization.
