Hong Wang, Xiaohui Wang, Yuanyuan Cai, Wei Hui, Jingjing Li · Applied Artificial Intelligence · 2009
Connecting migration in mobile agent systems is to support continuous and transparent communication operations between mobile agents. This article presents the design and implementation of a reliable connecting migration mechanism that provides exactly one delivery for all transmitted data during agent migration. We implemented this mechanism and named it AgentSocket in a VPNAgent system used in the VPN security mechanism. It is a pure middleware implementation, without requiring modification of Java virtual machines.
