Abstract

The comparing and evaluation of e-commerce websites is becoming an important issue for customers, due to the immence icrease in the number of web site, in order to decide which websit is better to deal with. In this paper a buyer agent e-commerce model that is based on four Information Quality (IQ) dimension (Relevency, Reputation, Timeline, and Ammount of Data) is proposed, tested and evaluated aginst a priced based model. An Evaluation of the four dimsnsion is carried out in oerder to determine the most effective dimension. Evaluations are done through simulation process. The model also evaluated by a group of 10 people, the result of their evaluation agreed with the result of the simulated evaluation. Realizing the issues existing in current agent-based systems, this research, from the goods information point of view, ranks goods items based on the Information Quality dimensions.
