Several Structures for Protecting the Routes of Mobile Agents Dispatched in Parallel

چکیده
For mobile agents to be effective in practice, they have to be securely and efficiently deployed. In this paper, we propose and discuss several route structures and methods for mobile agents that are dispatched in parallel. These schemes can protect the route information against malicious hosts and facilitate the dispatching of a large number of agents in parallel efficiently. Under noncollusion attacks, these methods expose minimal addresses to a host for dispatching other mobile agents. Moreover, they can detect possible attacks as early as possible and enforce the predefined dispatch order.

A study of securing route structures for mobile agents dispatched in parallel
For mobile agents to be effective in practice, they have to be securely and efficiently deployed. In this paper, we first present and discuss five secure route structures for mobile agents dispatched in parallel. These schemes aim to protect the route information against malicious hosts and facilitate efficient dispatching of a large number of agents, combining public-key encryption and signatu...
متن کاملDispatching Mobile Agents with Secure Routes in Parallel
In a distributed environment like the Internet, mobile agents can be employed to perform autonomous tasks such as searching and negotiating. However, for mobile agents to be widely accepted, performance and security issues on their use have to be addressed. In this paper, we propose a parallel dispatch model with secure route structures for protecting the dispatch routes of agents. This model f...
متن کاملSecure route structures for parallel mobile agents based systems using fast binary dispatch
In a distributed environment, where a large number of computers are connected together to enable the largescale sharing of data and computing resources, agents, especially mobile agents, are the tools for autonomously completing tasks on behalf of their owners. For applications of large-scale mobile agents, security and efficiency are of great concern. In this paper, we present a fast binary di...
متن کاملSecurity and Robustness Enhanced Route Structures for Mobile Agents
In this paper, we present a parallel dispatch model with secure route structures for protecting the dispatch route information of mobile agents. This model facilitates efficient dispatching of agents in a hierarchical manner, and ensures route security by exposing minimal route information to hosts. It also provides the capability for detecting attacks. Based on the secure dispatch model, two e...
متن کاملA Goal Programming Model for Single Vehicle Routing Problem with Multiple Routes
The single vehicle routing problem with multiple routes is a variant of the vehicle routing problem where the vehicle can be dispatched to several routes during its workday to serve a number of customers. In this paper we propose a goal programming model for multi-objective single vehicle routing problem with time windows and multiple routes. To solve the model, we present a heuristic method wh...
