Abstract :
Migration distribution transparency is considered in the context of multi-agent systems. A mobile agent architecture is proposed with an availability service and a transparency interface. Transparent mobility of agents is explored in applications using overall balancing of resources. The search for a new destination agency follows a transparent location and selection. Final balancing takes place at the level of requests and callbacks. Transparency is goal oriented
