Over the past decades, Distributed Systems (DS) have been adopted for industrial applications to improve the system efficiency because distributed architecture has advantages in resource utilization, fault toleration .etc. Multi-Agent System (MAS) arises from combination of the theories of artificial intelligence and distributed systems. One character of MAS is their self-organization, so how to implement an effective mechanism for self-organization of agents is important to a MAS system, this paper describes the design and implementation of a Mobile-C based agent management system, in which Mobile-C was adopted as the implementation platform, and this paper also described an agent-based cooperative design application using this system to manage all the agents involved.
