Proposal of Snapshot Management Mechanism for DASH agent framework

摘要

In recent years, a system that can flexibly accommodate and resolve difficulties is necessary for network service users because of the rapid development of information technology. Accordingly, agent-oriented computing, a technique for generating an agent that operates autonomously according to behavior knowledge, is receiving much attention. Various frameworks are used to develop and operate agent systems. A repository-based agent framework, the DASH framework, has no system that guarantees agent persistency. Therefore, we propose Snapshot Management Mechanism for Agent Framework DASH, which is able to make agent systems operate again under the same circumstances. Herein, we explain the DASH framework and the proposed Snapshot Management Mechanism. Moreover, we demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
