Mobile Agent Interoperability Patterns and Practice
نویسندگان
چکیده
A major setback for mobile agent technology is a lack of interoperability between systems for mobile agents which prevents them from reaching “critical mass.” In this paper, we analyze the requirements for interoperability, and present design patterns which support interoperability between systems for mobile agents. We tested our patterns by adding support for Jade agents as well as for Tracy agents within our own mobile agent server SeMoA. The results of our experiments and our conclusions are summarized.

Generative Mobile Agent Migration in Heterogeneous Environments
Agent migration, in theory, makes it possible to bring computations to the resources required. In practice, however, homogeneity in programming language and/or agent platform is required. This paper presents an approach that supports heterogeneous agents and platforms: agents written in different languages can migrate between non-identical platforms. Instead of migrating the “code” (including d...
متن کاملHigh-Level Interoperability between Java-based Mobile Agent Systems
One of the major setback preventing the mobile agent technology from being widely exploited is a lack of interoperability between heterogeneous mobile agent systems. In this paper we propose a Java-based framework which enables high-level interoperability between Javabased mobile agent systems. The framework relies on an event-driven, proxy-based mobile agent model and allows for supporting int...
متن کاملMobile Agent Interoperability Revisited
A major setback for mobile agent technology is – apart from a frequently cited absence of appropriate security mechanisms – a lack of interoperability between systems for mobile agents, which prevents mobile agents from reaching " critical mass " for widespread application. Interoperability is required where systems of different vendors come into contact with each other. More precisely, two mob...

Now a days, mobile electronic devices bring new achievements to education. By expanding mobile devices, it also eliminates spatial constraint training and enables the person to benefit from this type of training at any place and at any time. In this study, first, the challenges of mobile education are examined. Then, using the cloud processing system, a solution is proposed to improve the chall...
متن کاملToward Dynamic Interoperability of Mobile-Agent Systems
Mobile agents are an increasingly popular paradigm and in recent years there has been a proliferation of mobile-agent systems. These systems are, however, largely incompatible with each other. In particular, agents cannot migrate to a host that runs a different mobile-agent system. Prior approaches to interoperability have tried to force agents to use a common API and so far none have succeeded...
