Abstract
Mobile agents are small programs that can change a place of their execution from one machine to another. Hence to this and other features this technology has a lot of advantages. Among others mobile agents can be used as a platform for multi-threaded and distributed applications. This kind of platform should be capable of cooperating with solutions like Azul which provides virtually unlimited processor and memory resources for Java and Java Enterprise Edition applications. In this paper scalability and dependability of mobile agents on the Azul platform is evaluated.
