A Novel Method to Maintain Privacy in Mobile Agent Applications
نویسندگان
چکیده
Two methods to implement privacy in network communication, anonymity and DCSC (data confidentiality and secure computation) are analysed and compared in regard to privacy in mobile agent applications. It is illustrated that privacy through DCSC is more suitable in mobile agent applications. To support this conclusion, privacy is concretely implemented in a bidding mobile agent scheme in this paper. Success of this example demonstrates that privacy can be practically achieved in mobile agent applications through DCSC without compromising the advantage of mobile agent.

Cooperative Control of Mobile Robots in Creating a Runway Platform for Quadrotor Landing
Multi-agent systems are systems in which several agents accomplish a mission in a cooperative manner. In this paper, a novel idea for the construction of a movable runway platform based on multi-agent systems is presented. It is assumed that an aerial agent (quadrotor) decides to make an emergency landing due to reasons such as a decrease in energy level or technical failure, while there is no ...
متن کاملDesign and Evaluation of a Method for Partitioning and Offloading Web-based Applications in Mobile Systems with Bandwidth Constraints
Computation offloading is known to be among the effective solutions of running heavy applications on smart mobile devices. However, irregular changes of a mobile data rate have direct impacts on code partitioning when offloading is in progress. It is believed that once a rate-adaptive partitioning performed, the replication of such substantial processes due to bandwidth fluctuation can be avoid...

متن کاملA 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...
متن کاملSecure Internet Applications Based on Mobile Agents
The increasing importance of the Internet has motivated the exploration of new execution models based on mobile and dynamic entities to overcome the limits of the client/server model traditionally used to develop Internet applications. In this research, an Enhanced Role-based access control model (ERBAC) and an architecture for the ERBAC model are proposed. The architecture based on mobile agen...
