Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 資訊工程學系 === 86 === The rapid growth of Internet and World Wide Web (WWW) has produced a maze of documents, databases, and programs. Almost any information is available somewhere on the Net, but even expert researchers waste a lot of time searching for the right sources of information. Where to find desired information has become a big problem. What we need is a more personalized tool (agent) to help us travelling through the Web, searching information, buying or selling things and making orders. Because the SET (Secure Electronic Transactions) protocol ensures the security of Electronic Shopping, Electronic Shopping has become a new tide. How to find out information about products quickly will become another important issue. In this thesis, we propose a system architecture to develop agent applications based on proxy server. Under this architecture, neither do we need to change the standard protocols like HTTP and HTML, nor do we need to modify existing components such as web server and browsers. We implement an electronic shopping agent to illustrate the system architecture.
