World Wide Web is an indispensable tool for humanity to do a spectrum of activities. Apart from sharing information, communicating and collaborating, it is also the medium for doing online business. However, it is hard to get the right Web service since there are so many offering similar goods and services, or the desired service is currently unavailable. Furthermore, multiple services are usually required to satisfy a single objective. This project presents a multi-agent system that uses a graph-based composition schema for dynamic Web service composition. Java Agent Development Framework (JADE) is the chosen software framework to develop agents involved. This agent technology is integrated with three types of Web service presently in the Web community.
