  	abstract =	{Information agents are cooperative agents whose main goal
  	is to collaborate and assist task agents like mobile agents in
  	obtaining information from heterogenous data sources. This study sets
  	out to find the practical problems that a developer might encounter in
  	the process of engineering an information agent in the context of a
  	real estate agent based application. In our research, we investigated
  	the practicality of constructing an information agent based on existing
  	tools available in the marketplace. We enumerate the practical issues
  	that one will face in the engineering of such an agent in a mobile
  	agent HomeBot application. We also set out in here some suggested
  	techniques in overcoming them. Our contention is that the construction
  	of an information agent is feasible but tedious, but more importantly
  	what is needed is an integrated tool that is yet missing and is not
  	provided for in the community, somethng agent tool builders should
  	address immediately.},
