Abstract :
The Internet and wireless communication offer unprecedented access to information. To effectively collect useful information from massive available sources requires the development of new methodologies and techniques that can substantially increase speed and flexibility in a distributed environment. Focusing on content-based image retrieval, this paper presents the use of transportable agents as the steering tool for dynamic indexing and flexible searching
