Abstract

: Although, in the last several years, there has been extensive research going on in the development of mobile agent systems, there are few efforts in the study of their performance in real world applications of wireless networks. As a result, the spread of mobile agent technology in real world wireless applications cannot as yet be seen. This paper describes the implementation of a tool to simulate the behavior of mobile agents and its utilization for the performance analysis of mobile agents in wireless applications. The implementation consists of extending the existing network simulator NS2 to support mobile agent simulation.
