Michal Oglodek, Maciej Gawinecki, Marcin Paprzycki · 2007
There exists a number of ways in which legacy software can be “wrapped ” to become interoperable. Two of currently more popular of them are utilization of Web Services and software agents. The aim of this paper is to experimentally compare efficiency of JADE implemented agents, with Web Services, when used as transducers for an SMTP server.
