Abstract

In this paper we approach the semantic heterogeneity problem which arises in agent mediated electronic commerce, presenting the AEMOS system as a promising answer. AEMOS is an agent mediated electronic commerce platform which main goal is to enable an efficient and transparent negotiation between agents even when they use different ontologies to represent the same domain of knowledge. The system provides ontology services, more specifically ontology matching services, which are improved by the exploitation of emergent social networks. In this paper we present the currently implemented system and demonstrate how an agent mediated electronic commerce system may benefit from the inclusion and combination of ontology services and social network based support.
