Mobile Agent–Based Module Distribution in Heterogeneous Networks

摘要

The effective use of computing resources in a heterogeneous network of computers is a field of intensive research.In this paper a mobile agent-based system is described for distributing modules in such a network.Modules in this paper mean either an entire task or the modules of a task or submodules created by a segmentation algorithm.Methods for module distribution and result collection are given,along with a routing algorithm that allows the easy navigation of agents throughout the system.Some solutions for describing the resource requirements of modules and the resources available on the network are also introduced.
