Abstract

Using the fabric of virtual organization architecture, a novel formalized mobile agent computation model is defined. In this model, all the actions (e.g. service, migration and communication etc.) of the mobile agents are treated as states. The process of the mobile agents’ workflow is controlled by a finite-state-machine. This ensures the atomic action for each mobile agent to avoid the abnormal condition of communication mismatch. We propose a tolerance named service density of group, which will greatly decrease the probability of the mobile agent waiting for resource. It also can balance the service occupancy for the whole network.
