Abstract :
This paper describes a novel architecture of active node, which is based on an agent system. Mobility of an agent and cooperation among agents make our system more flexible and functional. In addition, our system has interoperability with conventional networks by including a rule-based packet controller. We prove the feasibility of our architecture by an implementation.
