Abstract

Currently the main focus of e-Government in Bulgaria is aimed at the provision of electronic administrative services to citizens and businesses. The development aimed at streamlining and optimizing the work of administration and information support of processes of decision-making is still unregulated. They are not conducted any serious research. The paper points out one of the activities which according to the authors may fruitfully contribute to the development in this direction. It is about an integral approach to access to complex information resources (databases), supported by different systems, including in different countries. For realization of this approach the authors propose the application of multi-agent systems in an environment of semantic Web services.
