IMCAG: Infrastructure for managing and controlling agent grid

Abstract

This paper presents infrastructure for Managing and Controlling Agents Grid (IMCAG). The goal of IMCAG is to realize the distributed service integration within Internet. Regarding providing service as the central task, IMCAG creates a transparent integration to make the easy use of every kind of service in heterogeneous, open and dynamic network environment. This paper expatiates IMCAG from three basic aspects: the framework of the Agent grid information communication; the core control mechanism of Agent grid; the individuation of adjusting with Agent service, and discusses application of IMCAG by a test. The paper concludes that IMCAG will become more mature and complete along with the development of related technique and application in grid. © Springer-Verlag 2004.
