This paper presents a context-aware infrastructure for building and managing mobile agent-based ambient media, where mobile agents are autonomous programs that can travel from computer to computer under their own control as virtual counterpart objects for people or physical entities. These are digital representations of people or physical entities and can define and provide ambient media for advertising or user-assistant services for users. The infrastructure spatially binds the positions of people or objects with the locations of their virtual counterparts and, when they move or are carried in the physical world, it automatically deploys their agents at computers near to their current positions to provide ambient media. To demonstrate the utility and effectiveness of the system, we constructed and operated two context-aware ambient media systems as case studies in our development of agent-based ambient computing in wide public spaces.
