Location Management using Multi-Agent for Distributed Location Based Services

요 약 Mobile computing is very important in location management to provide services to the mobile users like banking, city guides and many more. Ubiquitous and mobile devices are the source of data in location management and its significant operations are update and search method. Some studies to improve these were presented by using optimal sequential paging, location area scheme and hierarchical database scheme. In addition, not all location services have the same access methods on data and it lead to difficulties of providing services. A proposed location management of multi-agent architecture is presented in this study. It shows the coordination of the agents on the distributed database of location-based services. In addition, the proposal focuses on the location management of the mobile object presented in a hierarchical search and update. It uses a nearest neighbor technique for efficient method of mobile objects. The result using the technique improves the search method of the location-based service.
