Coordination of Mobile Agents for Information Systems: the TuCSoN Model
نویسندگان
چکیده
The paper presents the TuCSoN coordination model for Internet applications based on mobile information agents. The model is based on the notion of tuple centres, tuple-based interaction spaces whose behaviour in response to communication events can be programmed according to the application requirements. This makes it possible to embed intelligence into the communication abstractions and to deal with heterogeneity and dynamicity of the information sources.

TuCSoN: a Coordination Model for Mobile Information Agents
The increasing need to access and elaborate dynamic and heterogeneous information sources distributed over Internet calls for new models and paradigms for application design and development. The mobile agent paradigm promotes the design of applications where agents roam through Internet sites to locally access ad elaborate information and resources, possibly cooperating with each other. This pa...
متن کاملResilience Enhancement of Active Distribution Networks Via Mobile Energy Storage Systems and Protection Coordination Consideration
Owing to the portability and flexibility of mobile energy storage systems (MESSs), they seem to be a promising solution to improve the resilience of the distribution system (DS). So, this paper presents a rolling optimization mechanism for dispatching MESSs and other resources in microgrids in case of a natural disaster occurrence. The proposed mechanism aims to minimize the total system cost b...
متن کاملMulti-agent Systems on the Internet: Extending the Scope of Coordination towards Security and Topology
The Internet is rapidly becoming the privileged environment for today’s Multi-Agent Systems. This introduces new issues in MAS’ design and development, from both a conceptual and a technological viewpoint. In particular, the dichotomy between the openness of the execution environment and the need for secure execution models makes governing agents’ interaction a really complex matter, especially...
متن کاملCoordination in Context: Authentication, Authorisation and Topology in Mobile Agent Applications
Adding the dimension of mobility to the engineering of complex software systems extends the scope of coordination. Since a mobile agent can roam a collection of different execution environments, physically distributed and possibly heterogeneous, interacting with both local resources and other mobile agents, both topology and security strictly relate to coordination. In this context, we propose ...
متن کاملHybrid Coordination Models for Handling Information Exchange among Internet Agents
Information exchange in multi-agent systems raises a multiplicity of problems, which the Internet further emphasises – heterogeneity and dynamics of information among the main ones. Knowledge scientists and engineers have proposed several solutions (mediators, information brokers, ontologies) which, roughly speaking, mainly focus on information representation, retrieval and interpretation. Mean...
