Abstract

A case of middleware for agents that work in mobility scenario is explained in this paper. Using this middleware the agents achieve an intelligent management of the communication infrastructure. The principles of operation of the middleware are inspired in the ubiquitous computing paradigm. Specifically, a design of a middleware is described in this work, permitting a proper integration of mobile agents in the corporative information system. In this context, the concept of proper integration means that all the information that is related with the mobile agents operations is available at the moment, and in the required amount by all the processes of the information system of the organization.
