Security issues are very important for the acceptance of mobile agent technology in management. We present a threat analysis and security architecture for these problems.
Fault-tolerance is fundamental to the further development of mobile agent applications. In the context of mobile agents, fault-tolerance prevents a partial or complete loss of the...
This paper concerns the problem of agent trust in an electronic market place. We maintain that agent trust involves making decisions under uncertainty and therefore the phenomenon...
The mobile agent approach has become popular due to recent developments in the mobile code paradigm and enabling programming technologies. Many existing agentbased systems lack cl...
In this paper we develop a novel probabilistic model of computational trust that explicitly deals with correlated multi-dimensional contracts. Our starting point is to consider an...
