基于Agent的协同式网络管理模型研究与实现

Cooperative Network Management Model based on Mobile Agent

移动Agent技术为智能网络管理的研究开辟了新的思路,但由于每个Agent是一个自治的主体,因此如何实现多个Agent协调合作来高效地管理网络成为多Agent系统(MAS)的核心问题。在对移动Agent和其体系结构进行研究的基础上,提出了一种基于多移动Agent网络管理模型,将移动Agent分成四类,并将黑板系统方法的应用在多Agent之间通信和协调中,使Agent间的协调变得相对容易,通过黑板将单个Agent联系成一个整体,结果表明,该模型加强了对各Agent的控制,提高了网络管理效率。

The mobile agent technology opens a new path in the area of intelligent network management. As each agent is an autonomous object, so how to achieve efficient network management through the coordination of multi Agent becomes the core issue of the MAS. Based on the research of mobile agent and its framework, a network management model based on cooperative mobile agent is proposed. And the blackboard system is applied in multi-Agent communication and coordination. Thus the control of the agent is strengthened while the parallelism is increased. The simulation results show that the model strengthens the control of the agent and improves the efficiency of network management.
