The research for the efficiency of communication mechanism on mobile Agent system

Abstract

Two typical communication mechanisms of mobile Agent system were analyzed, the communication mechanism based on asymmetric key encryption technology and the communication mechanism based on symmetric key encryption technology. The two kinds of communication mechanism were safe, but they have weakness on the efficiency. A new mechanism was proposed that integrated the two communication mechanisms, called S communication mechanism. Through theoretical analysis and experimental verification, the S communication mechanism can utilize the advantages of the two typical communication mechanisms and improve communication efficiency of the whole Mobile Agent system.
