Abstract

NOMADS is a Java-based agent system that supports strong mobility (i.e., the ability to capture and transfer the full execution state of migrating agents) and safe agent execution (i.e., the ability to control resources consumed by agents, facilitating guarantees of quality of service while protecting against denial of service attacks). The NOMADS environment is composed of two parts: an agent execution environment called Oasis and a new Java-compatible Virtual Machine (VM) called Aroma. The combination of Oasis and the Aroma VM provides key enhancements over today’s Java agent environments.
