چکیده
The University of Michigan Digital Library is a large-scale confederation of software agents, providing library content and services to users and each other within a distributed network environment. Allocation of resources and activities to the various agents is determined through a market-based negotiation process, where agents tender ooers to buy or sell services , basic resources, and other information goods for speciied prices. Generalized auction modules resolve these ooers into deals among agents. Viewing each agent as an information consumer or entrepreneur , the digital library as a whole constitutes a virtual economy of information goods and services.
