Abstract :
In this paper, we present a mobile agent based software architecture for home telemonitoring network. The system mainly contain 4 components: end monitoring node, relay station, doctor workstation, and manufacturer server. The manufacturer created mobile code is transferred from the manufacturer server to the relay station or the doctor workstation for executing in an on-demand mode, such that a highly heterogeneous home monitoring device deployment scheme can be supported with good extensibility and inter-operability. A prototype implementation of the model was presented, and issues related to mobile agent platform and telemonitoring, such as liability, security, manageability was discussed.
