چکیده
The paper deals with a generic model of a mobile agent network that includes multi-agent system, and a set of processing nodes connected by a communication network. A mobile agent network is described as a queuing system where mobile agents represent information units that must be served. Network flows related to agent hosting and migration and serving capabilities of processing nodes are proposed. The response time defining an interval between acquiring the request and producing the response is defined as a performance measure for a mobile agent network. A case study discussing response time evaluation is included.

A Formal Petri Net Based Model for Antivirus Update Agent System
In this paper, a formal model for antivirus update agent system is presented based on mobile agent technology and predicate/transition Petri nets. The mobile agent system contains two mobile agents called DCA and UNA. It sends out agents to update antivirus on client computers in a network. Each agent takes on a specified responsibility. First, DCA roams through the network and check the last d...
