Abstract

This paper presents a new approach to the dynamic allocation of mobile agents by on-line task scheduling for high performance in Internet computing. In contrast to the existing approaches, which apply predefined task scheduling schemes to allocate computing resources, we introduce a new on-line competitive algorithm to achieve flexibility. A guided allocation scheme based on the system competitive ratio is developed to optimize the allocation of mobile agents. The proposed system combines push-based technology with an innovative on-line task-scheduling scheme to speed up system response time and minimize system overheads. The system analysis and simulation demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of our approach to mobile agent-based Internet computing.
