Further Information

This paper introduces an experimental framework for mobile agents. It utilizes expressiveness and formal foundation of concurrent constraint programming to solve the problem of system support for dynamic re-binding of not transferable resources and inter-agent collaboration based on logic variables. Proposed solutions make the agent-based programming easier and more straightforward and on the other hand offer a basis for a more sophisticated multi-agent system. The framework is implemented in the Distributed Oz programming language that appears to the programmer as concurrent, object-oriented language with data-flow synchronization. There are two implementations of the system - one is based on freely mobile objects and the other one is based on components (functors).
