In computer science, a software agent is a piece of software that acts for a user or other program in a relationship of agency- From the Latin agere (to do): an agreement to act on one's behalf.. Such "action on behalf of" implies the authority to decide when (and if) action is appropriate. The idea is that agents are not strictly invoked for a task, but activate themselves.
