  abstract = "The world-wide-web (WWW) today consists of distinct,
  isolated islands of data and metadata.  In the near future we expect
  the availability of a critical mass of data and metadata for use by
  intelligent agents that act on behalf of human users. These agents
  would identify, propose and capture new opportunities to assist
  human users in satisfying their goals, by traversing and acting on
  this semantically rich and abundant information. We envision a new
  class of agents, their networks and their communities that exist for
  the sole purpose of serving as their human master's advocate -
  Advocate Agents. Advocate Agents learn a human's goals and
  preferences, collaborate with other agents, mine semantic content,
  identify new opportunities for action, propose them and finally
  transact them, while always keeping the human in-the-loop. This
  paper discusses this class of distributed, intelligent, advocate
  agents, their potential uses, and proposed architectures and
  techniques that provide a conceptual framework for these networked
  agent societies to collaborate in the achievement of their human
  user's goals.",
