Mobile agent technology has been proposed to address complexity problems related with service creation and deployment in today's open telecommunications domain. However, the integration of mobility into the traditional service creation process should not be decided on an ad-hoc basis. Based on the specific benefits and drawbacks of mobility, careful consideration is required in order to achieve a seamless integration of mobile agents into service creation practice. This paper explains in detail the necessity of a careful introduction of mobility in traditional service creation practices and concludes with a guideline to maximize the temporal and spatial locality of invocations between distributed service components.
