Abstract
Mobile agents [1] are active entities, which may migrate to meet other agents and access the place‘s services. For mobile agent collaboration in distributed environment, mobile agents should be able to exchange messages with each other, even if they are moving across a network. The ability to send messages to a moving agent is important mechanism for agent collaboration. In this paper, we propose reliable messaging mechanism with notification messages based on CORBA [2]. This mechanism allows messages in flight when a mobile agent moves, and messages sent based on an out-of-date IOR [3], to be forwarded directly to the mobile agent’s new location.
