Abstract

See full text

Intelligent mobile agents in a distributed network carry information tokens among network nodes. Each token includes compressed information or data, and an indication of the compression algorithm which can decompress the information. At least some of the nodes have at least one decompression algorithm. A copy of a token may be left at a node by an intelligent mobile agent moving through the network. A later-arriving intelligent mobile agent can interrogate the node to determine what information it has in the form of tokens, and can use the token information, or take the token (or a copy) elsewhere.
