Abstract
Remote operation of equipment is progressively gaining importance due to its large range of potential application areas such as hazardous environments, spatial vehicles, remote telescopes, remote manufacturing systems, virtual laboratories, etc. The traditional approaches based on remote procedure calling mechanisms reveal several difficulties when dealing with non-ideal networks that exhibit high delays and poor availability and reliability. The authors have proposed a solution for remote operation and supervision based on adaptive mobile agents which has important advantages for this kind of networks. In this paper further work is described concerning the inclusion of execution monitoring capabilities in the mobile agents.
