Ubiquitous systems will integrate computers invisibly and unobtrusively in everyday objects. Data will be catched from single or multi-sensor devices and will be used for context extraction. New location-based services will be adapted to user preferences. For this the ubiquitous system needs to know user profiles, likings, and habits. As the user moves, these information must be made available at the new location of the user. Either the user carries the data on wearable or portable computers or the smart environment takes responsibility for transporting them. The amount of new devices and services makes an efficient use by centralized systems very difficult. The idea presented in this paper is that a virtual reflection of the user represented by a mobile agent accompanying in the smart environment. Mobile agents offer a possibility to encapsulate information of a person and the person’s preferences and perform location-based services of the ubiquitous system in the name of the user. Security and privacy are major concerns of such an agent system. This paper describes a ubiquitous mobile agent system named UbiMAS which has security extensions to provide high protection of agents and significant personal data. UbiMAS is applied in the smart doorplate project as part of a smart office environment.
