“…With the more complex implementation of the parallel and branch strategies an improvement can be reached compared to the simple sequential strategy. Improved caching as done for the MAS JADE by Braun (2005) should be increasing the advantage of migration also for worse selectivity, if the agents' code is already present at the execution location and does not need to be (completely) transmitted.…”

The current trends and recent changes in logistics lead to new, complex and partially conflicting requirements for logistic planning and control systems. Due to the distributed nature of logistics the usage of agent technology is promising. Due to the mobile nature of logistics the usage of mobile agent technology is promising as well. Scenarios of usage of mobile agents in logistics are presented, a notation for those scenarios is defined and it is shown analytically in which cases the usage of mobile agent is superior to conventional communication. The main variable under study is the fan out, which is the number of partners a mobile agent needs to communicate with.

“…MA is a program, which migrates from host to host in a computer network. The interest in MA as a design paradigm for NMS seems to have dwindled over the past decade [1], with the number of research groups working on MA related research topics becoming smaller. There are a number of reasons [5] for this apparent decline in MA research activity, the most prominent being security concerns.…”

The exponential rise in complexity of the underlying network elements of a computer network makes its Management an intricate, multifaceted and complex problem to solve. With every passing decade, new technologies are developed to ease this problem of Network Management. The last decade of the premillennium era saw the peak of CORBA and Mobile Agent Based implementations, while the first decade of post millennium saw the emergence of Web Services. All of these technologies evolved as independent, self-contained implementation streams. There is a genuine dearth in finding authentic research outcomes where quantifiable, measureable benefits of convergence of these technologies applied to Network Management are put forth. This paper aims to fill this research gap. Here we put forth the experimental results obtained of a framework we developed in-house for Network Management that combined two seemingly divergent distributed computing technologies, namely, Web Services and Mobile Agents.

“…However many of the current agent platforms only support weak mobility, which means that only the code and the data of the agent is migrated, but not its state [8]. This is because most of the platforms are implemented in Java, which doesn't allow the migration of the execution state of the agents [7].…”

The disconnection from wireless network is one of the most critical problems that mobile users have to face in mobile computing environment. The mobile agent technology facilitates the realization of operations in an asynchronous way and has been used in e-commerce, semantic web searches and networks management. This paper presents a new software architecture that uses mobile agents to face the problem of temporary disconnection from wireless network and that also allows the presentation of information in different types of mobile devices using XML and XSL style sheets
