Agent-mediated architecture for reputation-based electronic tourism systems: A neural network approach

Agent technology can be used in searching and selecting a good e-tourism system. However, most such systems focus mainly on price and avoid important purchasing decision-making factors such as quality and reputation. Here we define a reputation-based architecture for an e-tourism system that we have called ‘reputation-based electronic tourism’ (RET). An artificial neural network model was created for a reputation agent to evaluate capabilities...
