Big-bang growth of Internet and World Wide Web is supplying much information and resources to network. However, use of internet resources is receiving many limitations by bandwidth for most users. But, through Applet way, can solve degradation problem that follow on static side and bandwidth of CGI that HTML has. Mobile Agent starts in user's computer to accomplish user's specification purpose and achieves work rooving network. Because code that can perform so is transmitted, and is achieved in network through network, important problem happens to mobile code's security naturally. In computing environment that this research uses this Mobile Agent way that can protect host and agent groping report, describe problem that happen composing Mobile Agent relationship concept and Mobile Agent, and do so that may present method that is studying to solve these problem, and use method that application is possible actually among presented method and design transfer agent's security system.

To get the items that a buyer wants in Internet auction. he must search for the items through several auction sites. When the bidding starts, he(the buyer) needs to connect to these auction sites frequently so that he can monitor the bid stats and re-bid. A reserve-price auction reduces the number of connections, but this limits the user's bidding strategy. Another problem is equity between the buyer and the seller. Both the buyer and the seller should profit together within proper limits. In this paper, we propose an auction agent system using a collaborative mobile agent and a brokering mechanism called MoCAAS (Mobile Collaborative Auction Agent System), which mediates between the buyer and the seller and executes bidding asynchronously and autonomously. This reduces connection costs. offers more intelligent bidding and solves the equity problem.

Most of conventional mobile agent systems requre that the users or the programmer should give the mobile agenl its detail behavioral script for accomplishing the given task. And during its runtime, such mobile agents just behave acording to the fixed script given by its user. Therefore it is impossible that conventional mobile agents autonomously build their own plans and execute. There in considering their ultirnale goals and the dynamic world states. One way to overcome such limtations of conventional mobile agent systems is to develop an mielligent mobile agent system ombedding a reactive planner.In this paper, we design both a modelof agent inobility and a model of inter-agent commuication based upon the representative reactive planning agent architecture called JAM. An then we develop an intelligent mobile agent system with planing capability, IMAS, by implementing addtional basic actions for agent moves and inter-agent comunication within JAM according too the predevined models. Unlike conventional mobile agents, IMAS agents can be able to adapt, their behaviors to the dynamic changes of their anvironment as well as build their own plans autonomously. Thus IMAS aents can snow higher flexibility and robustness than the conventional ones.

Jini architecture's Network Plug and Work provides simple and flexible network environment for distributed applications. Through the Jini technology, facilities for dynamically registering and locating mobile agent services can be easily supported, as well as the services useful for activities of mobile agents can be dynamically supported. In this paper, we describe a Jini-based mobile agent system named JMoblet, which provides the basic functions of a mobile agent system such as creation, control, transfer, location and communication among agents. To increase the reliability of the system, it also provides exception handling and persistence of the mobile agent systems for reliability.

In this paper, we propose a new framework based on negotiatory mobile multi agent system, and implement a mobile multi agent environment based on DECAF(Distributed Environment-Centered Agent Framework) which is one of the distributed agent development toolkit so as to implement a new PDS(Personal Digital Library System). The new framework has some optimality and higher performance in distributed environments.

The mobile agent is receiving the attention as new technique to retrieve and to share the distributed contents on web-based educational systems. The retrieval using mobile agent uses the method that delivers the agent to accomplish a search in direct server in substitute for it is transmitted a many contents to accomplish an efficient search. This study proposed the model of retrieval system that shares and searches the distributed educational contents of the bulletin board and newsgroup by using the mobile agent. In order to evaluate the efficiencies of the system that is proposed, we did the comparison test on the search model of existing and proposing system. By a test result, we confirmed network traffics of proposed system are diminished. Moreover we gave proof the fact that the optimum search time of the mobile agent-based system is shortened.

Mobile agent system comes into the spotlight since it contributes largely to mobile computing on distributed network environment. However, this system has a number of significant security Problems. In this Paper, we analyze suity attacks to mobile agent system Presented by NIST[3]. In order to protect this system from them, we suggest a security protocol for mobile agent system by employing R based key distribution and digital multi-signature scheme. To solve these problems described in NIST, securities for mobile agent and agent platform shouid be accomplished. Comparing with other protocols, our protocol performs both of these securities, while other protocols mentioned only one of them. Proposed Protocol satisfies simplicity of key management, providing security service such as confidentiality, integrity, authentication and preventing reputation, liveness guarantee, protection of excution-result data and preventing replay attack. Furthermore, it is designed to detect message modification immediately by verifying each step of agent execution at a corresponding server.

With the expansion of computer technology the mobility of a mobile agent code having the flexibility in the dispersive computer situation is used to set up the applications distributed on the Internet. As it also has the ability to transmit the mobile code of a mobile agent and to receive it from a far-off host, the executive circumstances of the host system in which an agent is executed have to access to an agent code and the executive state capable of executing an agent code. Therefore, it is difficult to prevent the forgery, the alteration and the wrong execution of an agent from a malicious host. This dissertation suggests the mechanism which can protect an agent from the malicious action through the executive pursuit of a code-named mobile agent. The security of this mechanism is verified through the protective process of a mobile agent in this mechanism.

인터넷과 World Wide Web의 폭발적인 성장은 네트워크에 많은 정보와 리소스를 제공하고 있다 그렇지만, 대부분의 사용자들에게 있어서 인터넷 리소스의 사용은 Bandwidth에 의하여 많은 제한을 받고 있다. 그러나 애플릿 방식을 통해서 HTML이 가지고 있는 정적인 면과 CGI의 bandwidth에 따르는 성능 저하 문제를 해결할 수 있다. Mobile Agent는 사용자의 특정 목적을 성취하기 위해서 사용자의 컴퓨터에서 출발하여 네트워크를 이용하면서 작업을 수행한다. 이렇게 수행할 수 있는 코드가 네트워크를 통하여 전송되고, 네트워크에서 수행되기 때문에, 자연스럽게 mobile code의 보안에 중요한 문제가 발생한다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 Mobile Agent를 사용하는 분산 웹 환경에서, Mobile Agent를 호스트와 Agent를 보호할 수 있는 방안을 모색보고, Mobile Agent 의 개념과 Mobile Agent를 구성하면서 생기는 문제를 기술하고, 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해서 연구중인 방법을 제시하고, 제시된 방법 중에서 현실적으로 적응 가능한 방법을 사용하여 이동 에이전트의 보안 시스템을 설계해 보도록 한다.

Recently, there are lots of concerning on robot agent system working for itself with the trends of the research of bio-mimetic system and intelligent robot. In this paper, a virtual 3D interface system is proposed based on Internet for remote controlling and monitoring of mobile robot. The proposed system is constructed as manager-agent model. A worker can order the robot agent move to a new position by clicking the destination on virtual space of 3D graphic interface in manager. Then the robot agent move to the position automatically with avoiding collision by using range finding and autonomous control algorithm. The proposed robot agent system lets us control the mobile robot remotely located more conveniently.
