Programming and Deploying Java(TM) Mobile Agents with Aglets(TM)

Danny Lange, Mitsuru Oshima0201325829, 9780201325829

The definitive guide on how to program mobile Internet agents in Java using the Aglet API. This book covers the mobile agent paradigm and how it is implemented in the Java platform. It also provides details on the entire API and covers advanced topics such as Agent design patterns and security.
