Scalable Middleware Environment for Agent-Based Internet Applications
Abstract. The AgentScape middleware is designed to support deployment of agent-based applications on Internet-scale distributed systems. With the design of AgentScape, three dimensions of scalability are considered: size of distributed system, geographical distance between resources, and number of administrative domains. This paper reports on the AgentScape design requirements and decisions, its architecture, and its components.
A Self-Healing Approach for Object-Oriented Applications
In this paper, we present our approach and architecture for fault diagnosis and self-healing of interpreted objectoriented applications. By combining aspect-oriented programming, program analysis, artificial intelligence, and machine learning techniques, we advocate that our approach can heal a significant number of failures of real interpreted object-oriented applications. 1
Integrating Peer-to-Peer Networking and Computing in the AgentScape Framework
The combination of peer-to-peer networking and agentbased computing seems to be a perfect match. Agents are cooperative and communication oriented, while peerto -peer networks typically support distributed systems in which all nodes have equal roles and responsibilities. AgentScape is a framework designed to support large-scale multi-agent systems. Pole extends this framework with peerto -peer computing. This combination facilitates the development and deployment of new agent-based peer-to-peer applications and services
