Abstract :
This paper proposes a software-only approach, based on garbled circuit, to solve the challenging problem: protecting mobile agents against tampering attempts by the executing hosts, and keeping the computation privacy. Our goal is to achieve "non-interactive computing with encrypted mobile code" in certain case, and proves that it is possible to protect mobile agent with no use oft any tamper resistant hardware.
