Abstrakt: This paper describes an application of cryptographic mobile agents to implement a simple Digital Rights Management (DRM) scheme. The scheme is designed upon a combination of mobile clueless agents, a threshold scheme and one-time passwords. The main goal of the scheme was to make it secure yet lightweight and easy to deploy and to maintain. The scheme is derived from Open Mobile Alliance΄s DRM system, which is a leading DRM standard for mobile devices. We describe here the architecture and the implementation of the scheme together with the results of the experiments. The reference implementation was done in Java and tested on JADE agent platform. The experiments were conducted on a distributed system consisting of various machines running different operating systems. We measured the performance of the proposed scheme to assess its usability for real-life applications. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
