Abstract

JMessengers is a Java-based mobile agent system particularly designed for distributed computing in heterogeneous computer networks. This paper explains JMessengers programming environment, evaluates JMessengers performance, and compares it to the mobile agent systems MESSENGERS-C and Grasshoppers. The evaluation showed that JMessengers is an optimal compromise between the two systems. It offers the same flexibility as Grasshoppers and reaches almost the execution speed of MESSENGERS-C.
