A Network Specific Information Search System Based on Mobile Agent

Abstract

A network specific information search system based on mobile agent and optimal search theory is presented. The mobility of agents is exploited to solve the multi-site search problem, and an optimal allocation schema of search resources is designed to improve the system's performance. The simulation results show that the new system can improve the probability of finding the specific information and reduce the search time than the average strategy. The computer simulation verifies the validity of the proposed algorithm.
