Abstract :
By analyzing the complex of the integration of heterogeneous database system and the characteristic of a multi-agent system, this paper proposes an agent based architecture that enables actual cooperation among a set of autonomous and heterogeneous information source. Three types of agent which is based on the speech-act theory have been defined in our proposal, coordinately, a new structure of the heterogeneous database system is also introduced.
