Abstract

In this statement, we sketch how to employ mobile agents for distributed computing and how such a solution compares to traditional approaches.

We would like to thank Dr. Keith Mannock, Birkbeck College, London, for his assistance and encouragement in the development of this work, which is supported also by the EPSRC and British Telecom (CASE studentship - award number 99803052).
