A QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE COMPARISON OF DISTRIBUTED INFORMATION PROCESSING USING MOBILE AGENTS REALISED IN RMI AND VOYAGER
Patrick Cogan, Jacek Gomoluch, Michael D. Schroeder · International Journal of Software Engineering and Knowledge Engineering · 2001
We review mobile agents in the context of distributed object computing and parallel processing. We compare these three paradigms qualitatively. For a quantitative comparison of RMI and Voyager as mobile agent platforms, we identify distributed information processing with flexible load balancing as a convincing application to evaluate the two platforms.
