Abstract:
The goal of this work was developing a query
processing system using software agents. Open Agent Architecture
framework is used for system development. The system supports
queries in both Hindi and Malayalam; two prominent regional
languages of India. Natural language processing techniques are
used for meaning extraction from the plain query and information
from database is given back to the user in his native language.
The system architecture is designed in a structured way that it can
be adapted to other regional languages of India. . This system can
be effectively used in application areas like e-governance,
agriculture, rural health, education, national resource planning,
disaster management, information kiosks etc where people from
all walks of life are involved.
