We propose a new encoding scheme to represent trees, which is composed of two parts: the pre-ordered traversal sequence of tree vertices and the children number sequence of corresponding tree vertices. The proposed encoding scheme has the advantages of simplicity for encoding and decoding, ease for GA operations, and better equilibrium between exploration and exploitation. It is also adaptive in that, with few restrictions on the length of code, it can be freely lengthened or shortened according to the characteristics of the problem space. Furthermore, the encoding scheme is highly applicable to the degree-constrained minimum spanning tree problem because it also contains the degree information of each node. The simulation results demonstrate the higher performance of our algorithm, with fast convergence to the optima or sub-optima on various problem sizes. Comparing with the binary string encoding of vertices, when the problem size is large, our algorithm runs remarkably faster with comparable search capability.

Mobile software agents represent a valid alternative to the implementation of strategies for the negotiation. In this paper, a QoS negotiation and renegotiation system architecture based on mobile agents is proposed. The agents perform the task in the whole process. Therefore, such a system can reduce the network load, overcome latency, and avoid frequent exchange information between clients and server. The simulation results show that the proposed system could improve the network resource utility about 10%.展开更多

The problem which protects mobile agents from malicious hosts is difficult to solve, because a host has access to the complete internal state of an agent. Forward integrity in mobile agents guarantees that offers contained in a mobile agent from previously visited host can not be modified by a malicious host. Itinerary secrecy can prevent mobile agent from being passively attack. This paper proposes a new forward integrity and itinerary secrecy protocol for mobile agent.

MAT (Mobile Agent Technology) represents a very attractive approach to the distributed control of computer networks and a valid alternative to the implementation of strategies for workflow system. This paper mainly focuses on improving the performance of workflow system by using MAT. Firstly, the performances of workflow systems based on both CORBA and mobile agent are summarized and analyzed; Secondly, the performance contrast is presented by introducing the mathematic model of each kind of data interaction process respectively.

Two cases of the information propagating topologies among multiple agents, characterized by graphics model, are considered. One is fixed topology. The other is switching topology which represents the limited and less reliable information exchange. The local formation control strategies established in this paper are based on a simple modification of the existing consensus control strategies. Moreover, some existing convergence conditions are shown to be a special case of our model even in the continuous-time consensus case. Therefore, the results of this paper extend the existing results about the consensus problem.展开更多

In mobile agent systems, the mobile agent travels autonomously from one computer to another within the agent enabled networks, executes itself in the agent execution environment, collects useful information and makes its own decision or behalf of its owner. This mobility nature of mobile agent demands its unique name in the whole network otherwise it gets lost or conflicts with other mobile agent having same name. This paper proposes a naming scheme which promises a unique name for a mobile agent within that network. Key words mobile agent - mobile agent platform - naming scheme展开更多

In such kind of Internet based applications, access must be secure and authentication takes a vital role to avoid malicious use of the system. This kind of security has been provided by several previously proposed algorithms based on RSA digital signature cryptography. However, the computational time for performing encryption and decryption operations in the past literatures is very high. In this paper, we propose an anonymous authentication scheme which potentially reduces the overall computation time needed for verifying the legitimacy of the users. Comparing with previous anonymous authentication schemes, our proposed scheme provides more security and it is effective in terms of computation cost. The experimental results show that the proposed method authenticates the users with low computational time significantly.展开更多

Many security technologies such as intrusion prevention and intrusion detection are passive in response to intrusions in that their countermea- sures are only to protect the networks, and there is no automated network-wide counteraction against detected intrusions, the architecture of cooperation intrusion response based multi-agent is propose. The architecture is composed of mobile agents. Monitor agent resides on every node and monitors its neighbor nodes. Decision agent collects information from monitor nodes and detects an intrusion by security policies. When an intruder is found in the architecture, the block agents will get to the neighbor nodes of the intruder and form the mobile firewall to isolate the intruder. In the end, we evaluate it by simulation.展开更多

In the system, the content provider creates a time limited blackbox out of an original agent and dispatches it to the user end to enforce DRM functions. The blackbox is an agent that can resist the attacks from the malicious user in a certain time interval. Owing to digital rights redistribution support, the user whose rights belong to redistribution category can transfer his rights to other users. Moreover, by introducing public key infrastructure (PKI) and certificate authority (CA) role, the security of the session can be ensured. An analysis of system security and performance and a comparison with traditional DRM system is given.展开更多
