Constructing grid system with mobile multiagent

Mobile agent technology is a new paradigm for parallel application. Because of the mobility, autonomy, and intelligence of mobile agent, we design a grid system based on it. Because Tagent is Java-based agent system that supports strong mobility and MASIF standard, we utilize it as underlying architecture for our system that is referred to strong-mobile agent-based grid (SMAGrid). SMAGrid has a flexible structure and management mechanism that is suited for dynamic heterogeneous environments in WAN. In addition, SMAGrid is extensible and can provide user with safe and high-performance parallel application development environment. And it reduces developer's burden with an agent kernel library which are Java objects capable of performing the various tasks and task assignment and scheduling algorithms.
