  abstract="MyGrid is an e-Science Grid project that aims to help biologists
            and bioinformaticians to perform workflow-based {\em in silico\/}
            experiments, and help to automate the management of such workflows
            through personalisation, notification of change and publication of
            experiments.  In this paper, we describe the architecture of myGrid
            and how it will be used by the scientist. We then show how myGrid
            can benefit from agents technologies.  We have identified three key
            uses of agent technologies in myGrid: {\em user agents\/}, able to
            customize and personalise data, {\em agent communication
            languages\/} offering a generic and portable communication medium,
            and {\em negotiation\/} allowing multiple distributed entities to
            reach service level agreements."
