Abstract :
This paper presents a generic multi-agent architecture for the semantic mediation of the information systems. This solution combines two approaches (schema mediation and context mediation) in a progressive way and uses new technologies in order to ensure better advantages of the two approaches. Our solution makes it possible to solve the majority of the semantic conflicts in a dynamic way and respects the properties of interoperability (autonomy, scalability, evolutionarily...) by using the concept of intelligent agent.
