Abstract:
Ajanta is a Java-based system for mobile-agent programming over the Internet. We present here an overview of the Ajanta system and its programming model. We outline the salient features and implementation of three agent-based distributed applications developed using Ajanta. These were designed to test and demonstrate the capabilities of Ajanta's programming model, APIs, and security architecture. The primary underlying motivation was to experiment with the agent paradigm itself. The applications described here include a distributed calendar manager, a distributed file access system, and a web search system. 1
