In the framework, the interaction policy for the involved agents is based on combination technique which combined the push and pull mechanisms. The agent-based framework consists of four agents: search agent, priority agent, notify agent and download agents that are applied in the e-learning domain. To demonstrate the working of these agents within the e-learning domain, three scenarios with different level of complexity involving one course/subject are presented. In general, these agents assist the students to get prompt notifications every time new documents are available in the course registered. Thus, eliminating the students from not knowing that new documents have been uploaded by the lecturers. Moodle, the e-learning domain is chosen since Moodle is an open-source Content Management System that encourages any developers to contribute new enhancement of the existing feature or create the new features for the benefits of Moodle users. © 2008 IEEE. date: 2008 official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-57349129082&doi=10.1109%2fITSIM.2008.4631569&partnerID=40&md5=5aa339b68b02db0cca832c35a7e70484 id_number: 10.1109/ITSIM.2008.4631569 full_text_status: none publication: Proceedings - International Symposium on Information Technology 2008, ITSim volume: 1 place_of_pub: Kuala Lumpur refereed: TRUE isbn: 9781424423286 citation: Latif, N.A. and Hassan, M.F. and Hasan, M.H.
