Abstrakt: | Application development on handheld devices using software agent technology is becoming more and more popular around the world. Escalation in the use of lightweight devices and PDA΄s leads us to create a concrete base for future nomadic applications, positioned in a changing environment. However, constrained characteristics of handheld devices serve as the main hindrance towards achieving this goal. This paper presents the architecture of context aware FIPA complaint multi agent system for the lightweight devices called SAGE-Lite, which are capable of providing fault tolerance through the mechanism of object persistence. Agents existing on lightweight devices can communicate and provide services via Bluetooth and the communication with the server is done via WAP. Since agents communicate via sending and receiving ACL messages, this architecture will minimize communication latency with in the platform. This framework allows implementing agent-based applications like business applications or e-commerce applications on these resource-constrained devices. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
