ABSTRACT	INTRODUCTION Mobile computation, where independent agents roam widely distributed networks in search of resources and information, is fast becoming a reality. A number of programming languages, APIs and protocols have recently emerged which seek to provide high-level support for mobile agents. These include Java [30], Odyssey [15], Aglets [19], Voyager [24] and the latest revisions of the Internet protocol [25, 2]. In addition to these commercial efforts, many prototype languages have been developed and implemented within the programming language research community --- examples include Linda [8, 9], Facile [16], Obliq [7], Infospheres [11], the join calculus [13], and Nomadic Pict [33]. In this paper we address the issue of resource access control for such languages. Central to the paradigm of mobile computation are the notions of agent, resource and location. Agents are effective entities that perform computation and interact with other First publis	user correction - Legacy Corrections
