Abstract
In the Internet, there are abundant computing resources such as computing power, network bandwidth, and data storage, but most of them have low utilization. P2P (Peer-to-Peer) computing can turn the Internet into a single computational platform. Besides, P2P computing is suitable for the dynamic environment of the Internet, and can achieve better scalability in the network size. The existent P2P systems, however, just provide some basic and simple service such as storage and file sharing, and instant messaging. Mobile agent technology can be used to improve the functionality of P2P computing. But it also has three mains issues, mobility, communication and security, should be conquered.
In this thesis, we continue with the research in Visitant, which is an agent-based structured P2P system developed by our laboratory. We enhance the services and mechanisms of the original system to solve the three main issues of mobile agent systems, especially in mobility and security issues. We also propose a more complete and useful set of APIs for programmers to use to develop their application by mobile agent format. At last, we use a simple application to demonstrate how to write a mobile agent with our system.
