چکیده

This paper provides an experimental and analytical evaluation of the Client-Server, Remote Evaluation and Mobile Agent communication paradigms. Our purpose is that of identifying the environmental situations in which such paradigms should be preferred or combined in order to optimize the performances of a distributed system. The scenario selected for the analysis is the Information Retrieval on the WWW. An analytical evaluation throughout the solution of non-Markovian Petri net models is provided.

ارائه یک رویکرد همانند سازی شده عامل محور در اجرای یک الگوی کد متحرک مطمئن

Abstract Using mobile agents, it is possible to bring the code close to the resources, which is not foreseen by the traditional client/server paradigm. Compared to the client/server computing paradigm, the greater flexibility of the mobile agent paradigm comes at additional costs as well as the additional complexity of developing and managing mobile agent-based applications. Such complexity ...

Evaluation of the Mobile Agents Technology: Comparison with the Client/Server Paradigm

This paper presents a performance evaluation of the mobile agent paradigm in comparison to the client/server paradigm. This evaluation has been conducted on top of the Java environment, using respectively RMI, the Aglets mobile agents platform and a mobile agents prototype that we implemented. The measurements give the cost of the basic mechanisms involved in the implementation of a mobile agen...

A Formal Petri Net Based Model for Antivirus Update Agent System

In this paper, a formal model for antivirus update agent system is presented based on mobile agent technology and predicate/transition Petri nets. The mobile agent system contains two mobile agents called DCA and UNA. It sends out agents to update antivirus on client computers in a network. Each agent takes on a specified responsibility. First, DCA roams through the network and check the last d...

Scalable Management Strategies using Mobile Agents in Optical Transport Network

Network Management is a critical issue in today’s rapidly changing network environment. Centralized client server networks are having problems such as scalability, reliability, interoperability and flexibility. Mobile agents decentralize the processing and control, thereby reducing the management traffic around the management station and distribute processing load. Network management based-on M...
