The InfoSleuth Project

Summary: InfoSleuth extends Carnot to find and integrate information across corporate and external networks via semantic modeling, domain ontologies, and cooperative agents. Mediation/brokerage agents decompose and route queries to specialized retrievers, integrators, and analyzers; prototype uses KQML, KIF, SQL, and LDL++ for query routing and supports distributed repository management and scenario-based data mining.
