Our original set of prototypes (MORE and the RBSE spider) is currently
begin restructured into a cooperative architecture involving:
3 indexing agents (2 are functional but not crawling at the moment,
'cause we're still waiting on our RAID array)
1 cataloging agent (under construction - basically an agent surrogate
populating a MORE instance)
1 classification agent
3 user agents (one of which is described at
http://ricis.cl.uh.edu/Sulla/)
Underlying all of this is a knowledge representation framework that's
currently being written up for publication. An overview of the overall
approach is available at http://ricis.cl.uh.edu/agents/.
