Abstract :
JavaSeal is a secure mobile agent kernel that provides a small set of abstractions for constructing agent applications. We describe the design of these abstractions and their implementation. We address the limitations of the Java security model that had to be overcome, and then present a medium-sized e-commerce application that runs over JavaSeal
