Abstract
Advantages of intelligent approaches such as Multi-Agent Systems (MAS) and the use of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) within the information fusion process are emerging, especially on context-aware scenarios.However, it is necessary to go further and propose better ways to deal with the avalanche of data that these scenarios provide. In this sense, virtual organizations of agents are an interesting alternative because they provide the necessary capacity to handle open and heterogeneous systems. This paper presents a framework that defines a method for creating virtual organization of software and hardware agents.
