Dependability is an important issue in the successful deployment of software artifacts, since users expect system services to be highly available and reliable. But unlike mainstream computer science, where dependability is a central design issue, the multi-agent research community is just beginning to realize its importance. One possible approach for increasing the reliability and availability of a multi-agent system is by replicating its agents. In this paper, the concept of transparent agent replication and its major challenges are investigated. In addition, an implementation of transparent agent replication for the FIPA-OS framework is presented and evaluated.
