.... supporting environment, thread migration 1 Introduction It is believed that a new star in the sky of distributed object oriented systems is the emerging field of mobile agents [22] There are many mobile agent systems [7] 8] 14] 18] that have been developed since the first prototype, Telescript [24], was proposed for e commerce in 1994. There are many ongoing discussions about developments of new mobile agent systems, but few have focused on both mobility and autonomy [2] 4] In an application of mobile computation [9] 13] a user often launches a mobile agent from a laptop that is connected ....
....an agent s thread when an agent wants to migrate, transporting the captured mapping and restoring the transported mapping after the agent migration. But the strong mobility is often constructed on special languages. Systems based on special or specification modified languages, such as Telescript [24], Agent Tcl [8] Ara [19] and Sumatra [1] are accepted by multiple platforms with difficulty. An evident example is that General Magic rewrites its mobile agent system, Telescript, into Odyssey by using Java in order to be widely accepted by heterogeneous platforms. 2. Permitting the ....

....buy and its payment conditions. 4. 3 Agent oriented Implementation The need of an agent oriented support to develop software was felt long before the introduction of agent oriented software engineering with the definition of agent oriented programming languages such as Agent0 [40] and Telescript [43]. Nowadays, the approach of agent oriented languages is no longer adopted and the greater majority of agents are developed in Java taking advantage of one of the available agent platforms. Agent platforms are run time environments that manage the lifecycle of agents and provide the necessary ....
