Hierarchically Structured Mobile Agents and their Migration
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper presents a framework for mobile agents. The framework is unique among other mobile agent systems in structuring mobile agents hierarchically. The framework provides the notion of agent hierarchy, in which each mobile agent can be a container of other mobile agents. We construct a prototype implementation of this framework. It is built on the Java language and mobile agents are given as Java objects. The framework helps us to construct a mobile agent application that is large in scale and complex.

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...

متن کاملDeploying a Hierarchical Management Framework Using Mobile Agent Technology
The use of Mobile Agent (MA) paradigm has been proposed by many researchers as an answer to the scalability and flexibility limitations of centralised Network Management (NM). Nevertheless, while large enterprise networks are already hierarchically structured, MA-based management has not yet moved from ‘flat’ to hierarchical structures. That results in non-scalable flat architectures, particula...

Abstract Using mobile agents, it is possible to bring the code close to the resources, which is not foreseen by the traditional client/server paradigm. Compared to the client/server computing paradigm, the greater flexibility of the mobile agent paradigm comes at additional costs as well as the additional complexity of developing and managing mobile agent-based applications. Such complexity ...
متن کاملA Dynamic-Epistemic Logic for Mobile Structured Agents
Multi-agent systems have been studied in various contexts of both application and theory. We take Dynamic Epistemic Logic (DEL), one of the formalisms designed to reason about such systems, as the foundation of the language we will build. BioAmbient calculus is an extension of π-calculus, developed largely for applications to biomolecular systems. It deals with ambients and their ability to com...
