Intelligent Software Agents.
The notion of Intelligent Software Agents (ISA) capable of finding, organizing, and analyzing information on behalf of their users is the most important concept emerging
in the computer world today. We are entering a stage in computing where we expect our machines to be somewhat smarter and more helpful in our every day tasks.
What are Intelligent Software Agents? Concept of software agents is not new.
Agents are generally regarded as pieces of software designed to perform a very specific task on behalf of the end user.
A little e-mail program that checks your email for new messages every few minutes and alerts its user if an email from a specific person arrived is an example of a
simple straightforward software agent.
An intelligent software agent (ISA) is a software agent that uses artificial intelligence (AI) in the pursuit of the goals or on behalf of its users.
Intelligent software agent take that concept a step further. They will perform a specific task for its user however, they will use artificial intelligence to make better choices or
better serve its user. This new generation of agent technology promises to help reduce the cost, effort, and time of filtering information. ISA applications are sure to create the next wave of Internet buzz.
SendMeReminder.com's software is an intelligent software agent, that detects things a user might want to be reminded about and automatically schedules the reminder with our reminder server system.
Have you ever typed in a rushed IM session "I will send it to you first thing tomorrow morning" only to forget about it the next day? With Sendmereminder agent you would receive an e-mail, or a text message (on your mobile device), reminding you
exactly what you said a day earlier. Your desktop truly becomes you intelligent personal assistant.
