Abstract :
Connection migration in mobile agent systems is to support continuous and transparent communication operations between mobile agents. This paper presents the design and implementation of a reliable connection migration mechanism that provides exactly-once delivery for all transmitted data during agent migration. We implemented this mechanism and named it AgentSocket in VPNAgent system used in the VPN security mechanism. It is a pure middleware implementation, without requiring modification of Java Virtual Machines.
