Abstract

This paper presents a framework for building and deploying protocols for migrating mobile agents over the Internet. The framework enables network protocols for agent migration to be naturally implemented within mobile agents and then dynamically deployed at remote hosts by migrating the agents that perform the protocols. It is built on a hierarchical mobile agent system, called MobileSpaces, and several protocols for migrating agents for managing cluster computing systems have been designed and implemented based on the framework. This paper describes the framework and its prototype implementation, which uses Java as both the implementation language and the protocol development language.
