Performance analysis of imago system
Yikai Su, Xining Li · 2006
In this paper, we introduce a logic-based mobile agent system IMAGO (intelligent mobile agent gliding on-line) and analyze its performance by comparing with three well-known mobile agent systems based on different languages: Aglets (Java), D'Agents (TCL) and Kaariboga (Java). Our study focuses on the performance of basic behaviors of mobile agents, such as agent-creation, agent-cloning, agent-migration and inter-agent communication. This research is conducted to implement benchmarks for specific behavior on four systems and run numerous experiments to validate our collected results. From the experimental results and analysis, we conclude that IMAGO system behaves very well in most performance criteria, while some results can be used to guide the improvement of the system.
