A Novel Security Approach in Mobile Agent Using Encryption

The appearance of software agents has given rise too much discussion of what such an agent is and how it differs from programs in general. An agent is anything that can be viewed as perceiving its environment through sensors & acting upon that environment through actuators. The existing systems can be classified in the context of singleagent systems and multi-agent systems. Mobile agents cantransport themselves from one host to another. Mobile agents have been developed as an extension to and replacement of the client-server model. The proposed system is Mobile Agent System. It reduces network load and latency in which there is usually no transmission ofintermediate result. This conserves the network bandwidth .Since the agents are autonomous; the mobile device that dispatches the agent need not be connected all the time.
