A Cloud Based Information Retrieval Agent System Using Web Services

Large, scalable computer resources are made available to consumers as a service via the cloud computing system, which runs over the Internet. Both the business and scientific communities have shown a lot of interest in this technology. Nevertheless, there are no mechanisms for information retrieval and knowledge discovery in the concept of cloud computing. In other words, clouds need autonomy and intelligence. Within cloud computing settings, Web Services are an essential part of Service Oriented Computing (SOC). A single Web Service is unable to get targeted and specialized information from Web Services inside a cloud environment. Agents may be used to help in the successful composition of Web Services. The main goal of this project is to propose a system to extract information in cloud environment by employing web services along with concept of multi-agent systems.
