Static Mutual Approach for Protecting Mobile Agent

摘要

In terms of the mobile agent paradigm, multi-agent systems represent a promising technology for emerging Ambient Intelligent scenarios in which a huge number of devices interact. Unfortunately, the lack of appropriate security mechanisms, both their enforcement and usability, is hindering the application of this paradigm in real world applications. In this paper, we present a software based solution for the protection of multi-agent systems. Our solution is focused on the cooperative agents model and the core of this concept is the protected computing approach. Finally, one of the most appealing aspects of this approach is based on its user friendly style for agent based system developers who are not security experts.
