This paper deals with performance evaluation of a mobile agent network using network calculus. A mobile agent network includes a multi-agent system and a set of processing nodes connected by a communication network where agents reside and operate as a team. We describe such a network as a queuing system where an agent represents an information unit to be served, while nodes represent servers capable of hosting, executing and communicating with agents. In a case study, a simulation-based method for performance evaluation is proposed. Various parameters for a given scenario are analysed and the experimental results are presented. © 2008 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
