For the activeness and autonomy of a sensor network, the efficient migration method of a mobile agent and the consistent naming services are the required components of a sensor network. Accordingly, this paper presented the implementation of backward migration of an active rule mobile agent applying the naming method based on RMI that used the meta_table including the informations about the components of a sensor network. This study implemented based on the extension of the forward migration[12], and the results of the various experiments present the efficacy of mobile agent middleware system and the possibility of constructing efficient sensor network application environment. And, the results of this study are able to enhance the adaptability on dynamic changes of environment in sensor network application development.

In this paper, we suggest the active multi-agent middleware for the sensor network application. For this, firstly we design and implement the active rule based mobile agent middleware. The mobile agent in the proposed system visits the destination sensor nodes according to the migration list offered by the meta table in the name space of the naming agent, acquires and transmits sensor data according to the purpose and needs through the active rules, and directly executes the actions corresponding to the optional events(changed sensor data and/or time etc.). And then, we show the potential applicability of the active rule based mobile agent middleware in various active sensor networks through the interaction with the rule base system and context database system.

In this paper, we propose the active rule system applying with emotional margin for power saving control. The proposed system in this paper is a part of the system which derives smart power saving by adjusting the illuminance using active rules within compromising the user's emotion. For this, we set the specific range of standard illuminance and the lower bound of user's emotional margin of illuminance based on measurements and analysis, and use these data in design of active rules. And then, we design and implement the active rule system using mobile agent. The mobile agent in the proposed system migrates to the destination sensor nodes, acquires and transmits sensor data according to the purpose and needs through the active rules, and directly executes the actions corresponding to the optional events(changed sensor data and/or time etc.). And then, we show the potential applicability of the proposed active rule system in various active sensor network applications through the interaction with the rule base and mobile sensor network middleware system.

The control system for the efficiency of resource utilization in sensor network environment based on object detection and environmental sensor requires active control function which based on sensor data acquisition and transmission functions and server's data analysis. Using active rule-based mobile agent middleware, this paper proposes a new distributed control framework that reduces the load of central sensor data server in sensor network environment by implementing remote data sensing and Zigbee-based communication with server and data analysis method of server. In addition, we implemented a power-saving system prototype using active rule-based distributed control methods that applied consumer's demand and environmental variables, and verified the validity of the proposed system through experiments and evaluations in the mobile agent middleware environment. The proposed system is a system framework that can efficiently autonomously control distributed objects in the sensor network environment, and it can be applied effectively to the development of demand response service based on optimal power control for the smart power system in the future.

In this paper, we propose the Distributed Power Saving Control System that enables the active and intelligent control(on/off and/or dimming control) of the lightning device using sensors and mobile agents. The proposed system is effective for energy saving and induces cost reductions in design and development of power saving control system as adding remote-monitoring or controlling functions is easier with the application of a variety of active rules. Moreover, the system improves the effectiveness of the acquired sensing data by real-time event handling and device controlling using a mobile agent based sensor network middleware that regularize the contextual information or a user's emotion. The results of this paper present the potential applicability of the proposed distributed control system using mobile agent in various active sensor network applications.

Since a migration method of the mobile agent is a factor that affects the overall performance of the entire distributed system, it is necessary to find efficient migration methods of the mobile agent within the sensor network and to collect and store data related to various components(server, sink and sensor node) of the sensor network, thereby providing consistent naming services. Accordingly, this paper presents design and implementation of MetaTable that is divided into MetaData where information on the sensor data server is stored and SubMetaData where various types of information on sink nodes and data on sensor nodes connected with the sink nodes is stored. Moreover, the paper also presented the implementation of forward migration of an active rule mobile agent applying the naming method based on RMI that used the meta_table and proposed the possibility of constructing efficient sensor network application environment. In this paper, for registration, release and retrieval methods suitable for new sensor network environment, we designed and implemented the naming agent by applying J2EE model based on RMI-IIOP(Internet Inter-ORB Protocol) technique.

Sensors with wireless communication functions are essential for acquiring and transmitting spatio-temporal data that is not easily accessible in sensor network environments. However, these sensors lack adaptability to large amounts of sensing data processing or dynamic environments, resulting in over-consumption of power and network overhead. This paper proposes a mobile agent that can acquire, transmit, and process only the necessary data by applying thresholds, and presents methods for autonomous migration and communication processing of mobile agents.

The mobile agent, which handles a given task while migrating between the sensor nodes, moves including the execution commands and task processing results. This increases the size of the mobile agent, causing the network to load, leading to the migration time delay and the loss of migration reliability. This paper presents the method of lightening the mobile agent using distributed object technology and the algorithm for exploring and providing the optimal migration path that is actively performed in the event of network traffic, and it proposes a method to ensure the reliability of the mobile agent migration by applying them. In addition, through the comparative analysis experiments based on agent size and network traffic for the migration time of mobile agent equipped with active rules in sensor network-based mobile agent middleware environment, applying the proposed methods proves to ensure the autonomy and migration reliability of the mobile agent.
