基于移动多智能体的分布式系统软件架构研究

在对比分析当前可用的分布式计算的计算模式的基础上,主要研究基于移动多智能体的分布式系统的软件体系结构。提出了一个基於移动智能Agent的分布式系统构架,给出了一种扩展请求器-中介器-供应器的嵌套式客户/Agent/服务器计算模式。在此基础上,讨论了一个基于Java的智能Agent构建的宏观经济决策支持系统框架和工作机制。经验分析表明,上述基於多智能体的分布式系统架构是可行的,并表现出更大的灵活性、自主性。

Research on software architecture of distributed system based on mobile agents

In this paper, we first analyze the differences among some main distributed computing technologies which are currently available. Then, we focus on studying software architecture on the basis of mobile agents. We present a framework of mobile intelligent agents-based distributed system. In this system, a nested N-tier client/agent/server design scheme incorporated Requester-Mediator-Provider model is deployed. Moreover, a macroeconomic decision support system through Java-based intelligent mobile agents, in which mobile computing through mobile agents are integrated into distributed computing, and its working mechanism is introduced. Our experience shows that this framework is feasible, and has the capability of flexibility and autonomy.
