Abstract

Mobile Agent is an autonomously transportable code migrating itself from one node to another in a heterogeneous network without losing its operability. They have become commercially practicable with recent technologies and have the potential for revolutionizing distributed and network applications more recently in wireless sensor networks and bioinformatics. The main aim of this study is to motivate the researchers into the field of intelligent software agent technology by providing an overview and updated comparison of the current mobile agent platforms.
