The Internet provides a large-scale environment for (intelligent) software agents. Agents are
autonomous (mobile) processes, capable of communication with other agents, interaction …

Internet-scale computational grids are emerging from various research projects. Most
notably are the US National Technology Grid and the European Data Grid projects. One …

User needs-driven and computer-supported development of pervasive heterogeneous and
dynamic multi-agent systems remains a great challenge for agent research community. This …

Agents need to be able to adapt to the dynamic nature of the environments in which they
operate. Automated adaptation is an option that is only feasible if enough structure is …

The combination of peer-to-peer networking and agent-based computing seems to be a
perfect match. Agents are cooperative and communication oriented, while peer-to-peer …

Abstract The Internet of Things vision proposes a global platform in an unforeseen scale for
distributed applications that rely on data provided by interconnected resource-constrained …

Mobile objects and agents are used for implementing distributed applications. Both concepts
allow efficient use of local resources, volatile network connectivity and more efficient …

Agents, and in particular mobile agents, offer a means for application developers to build
distributed applications. In current agent systems, mobility of agents is constrained by the …

This paper proposes a framework for a multiplatform mobile agent system based on Web
services. The framework includes a mobile agent factory, the mobile agents, and the host …
