Abstract: This paper presents a prototype C-based multi-agent system, called Sensor Agent Cloud (SAC), for multi-level based environmental and physiological signal monitoring and analysis. The SAC has a four-layered system architecture including the user interface layer, regulation layer, sensor agent group layer and sensor node layer. Two ultra-compact PC-based sensor nodes are prototyped by individually integrating a fully functional ultra-compact computer with two kinds of embedded systems. Proof-of-concept examples on sensor node data retrieval are used to illustrate and validate the low-level operations for SAC administrators through C/C++ mobile agents as well as the high-level operations for SAC end-users through Google Cloud services.

Abstract: This article presents a method of controlling a mobile robot using the Mobile-C mobile gent combined with Ch and details of the Mobile-C’s structure. By the control of Mobile-C mobile agent, the robot can be dynamically switched to new algorithms at runtime to deal with unexpected situations. At last, the distributed application experiments prove the effectiveness of the robot control based upon the Mobile-C mobile agent approach.

Abstract: 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.
