" I think this book will be the first standard introductory book on mobile agents."-José M.
Vidal, University of South Carolina Mobile agents are software nomads that act as your …

The operational semantics of a computation system is often presented as inference rules or,
equivalently, as logical theories. Specifications can be made more declarative and high …

Hand gestures are intuitive ways to interact with a variety of user interfaces. We developed a
real-time finger tracking technique using the Microsoft Kinect as an input device and …

In various situations, mobile agents at different hosts must cooperate with one another by
sharing information and making decisions collectively. To ensure effective interagent …

Mobile computation, in which executing computations can move from one physical
computing device to another, is a recurring theme: from OS process migration, to language …

Current multi-agent frameworks usually use centralized, fixed communication infrastructures
for the entities that are deployed using them. This decreases the robustness of the system …

Scalable and Secure Internet Services and Architecture provides an in-depth analysis of
many key scaling technologies. Topics include: server clusters and load balancing; QoS …

Agents' mobility makes it difficult for them to deliver messages reliably, but a new system
could change that. To asynchronously deliver messages to a mobile agent, the reliable …

We first propose a generic framework for the design of mobile agent communication
protocols. The framework uses a flexible and adaptive mailbox-based scheme that …

Location management and message delivery protocol is fundamental to the further
development of mobile agent systems in a multiregion mobile agent computing environment …
