Abstract

Strong-Mobile Agent-Based Grid (SMAGrid) is based on mobile agents that support strong mobility. Because Tagent is Java-based agent system that supports strong mobility and MASIF Standard, we utilize it as underlying architecture. SMAGrid has a flexible structure and management mechanism that is suited for dynamic heterogeneous environments in WAN. In addition, SMAGrid is extensible and can provide user with safe and high-performance parallel application development environment. And it reduces developer’s burden with a agent kernel library which are Java objects capable of performing the various tasks and all kinds of task assignment and scheduling algorithms. This paper emphasizes SMAGrid system’s architecture and management mechanism.
