A system and method for processing an electronic query that includes defining a set of rules accessible to an inference engine and wherein the set of rules are configured for (a) parsing the query into one or more subsequent-queries; and (b) determining whether additional information is necessary to answer each subsequent-query and, if so, (i) accessing a registry containing descriptions of one or more data resources, (ii) analyzing the descriptions of the one or more data resources to locate information responsive to the subsequent-query; and then the system and method could apply the set of rules to the information, aggregate all of the information responsive to the query, and supply an answer to the query that is compliant with the set of rules.
