  • Abstract
    Passing through more than 10 years development, many problems and obstacles still exist in China e-tourism, especially overlapping projects and single service of websites. This paper ascribes them to those non-integrated legacy systems, and strengthens the status of tourism destination as main body in the integrated system building. Aiming to the task-driven distributed intelligent attributes lying in the e-tourism task solving, the paper uses the HTN (Hierarchical Task Network) to represent tasks, and holonic agent to solving nodes and their organization. It clarifies the system construction, presents a logic formalism framework of holon from the angle of internal mental state, and exemplifies some details about the relationship between roles and nodes. Results of the study are expected to assist the integrated system building in e-tourism area, and then obtain the benefit of information integration and resource optimization finally.
