Abstract

In this paper, we propose an adaptation of the Wave system for code mobility as an alternative to existing agent platforms, and describe current work-in-progress of its design and implementation. Our proposed scheme adopts a coarse-grain approach to code mobility, whose functionalities are targeted at the distributed control of wireless sensor networking tasks, while promoting the local execution of repetitive data processing tasks as native code programs. Consequently, our approach introduces conceivable better energy-reduction features by simplifying code processing requirements at the local interpreter, which are augmented by its ultra-compact language constructs aimed at reducing the transmission time of the mobile scripts.
