“…Secure and Open Mobile Agent, SOMA [20] focuses on standardization for achieving agents" interoperability, SOMA was developed to comply with both CORBA and MASIF. The Agent Operating System (AOS) by [7] focuses on interaction between agent platforms and provides a set of primitives that are common to agent platform. The AOS was designed as a portable middleware layer between the mobile agent platform and the operating system and facilitate interoperability between agent platforms.…”

“…• Mole: developed in java, uses RMI for communication [6] The development of these agent platforms is motivated by different goals which include support for specific agent models, programming environments, mobility and security [7]. Agents need to communicate with one another in the process of working together to achieve a common goal, agent paradigm of software development believes that communities of agents are much more powerful than any single agent, which necessitates interoperation of agent systems.…”

Abstract-Service Level Agreements (SLA) are commonly used to define terms and conditions of service provisioning. WS-Agreement1 is an SLA specification that addresses the need of both producers and consumers of services to specify and negotiate terms and conditions of access to these services. This specification has gained wide acceptance in both the Grid computing and Web Services communities. WS-Agreement includes support for both negotiating and specifying penalties that arise from violation of these terms and conditions. It does not, however, include support for monitoring these agreements to determine if any such violations have occurred and, if so, determining which parties are responsible. This paper proposes a framework and design for secure and reliable monitoring of WS-Agreement specified SLAs. Modifications to WS-Agreement are necessary for effective monitoring. These modifications are outlined, along with an implementation of the framework in the AgentScape middleware system.
