Abstract
The goal of this paper is to propose a way to register agents so that makes users or autonomousagents to find target agents more conveniently and efficiently. In order to achieve this goal, we first survey the key technologies such as UDDI, ebXML, FIPA DF. As the results, we designed a new agent legistry/repository system based on ebXML technologies. We introduce our agent/repository system for wide area network and describe how to use our system for agent registering and searching target agents for communications. Finally, we give an example to illustrate a typical scenario in which user receives the results from our proposed agent registry/repository system and evaluate its characteristics in terms of advantage.
