Several models exist for describing agent systems for comparative [1] or standardization purposes [5, 6]. However, for discussing security issues it is sufficient to use a very simple one, consisting of only two main components: the agent and the agent platform. Here, an agent comprises the code and state information needed to carry out some computation. As mentioned earlier, the computation is typically a goal-directed task, performed autonomously by the agent on behalf of some individual, with the cooperation of other agents. An agent's code tends to be static or unchanging, while its state information may vary dynamically, reflecting the results of the actions taken by the agent. Mobility allows an agent to move or hop among agent …show more content…
This perspective is like how an operating system kernel is composed of trusted processes that enable user processes to operate by performing basic functions such as scheduling and memory management. To relocate itself, for example, an agent conceptually invokes a service (i.e., calls upon a trusted agent within the platform), which captures and packs the state information of the calling agent, serializes the calling agent's code, and dispatches the archived representation to the requested destination. While this perspective is useful in discussing the behavior and organization of the internals of the agent platform, it is only illustrative, and in no way implies that an agent platform must be implemented accordingly.
Any mobile agent platform has segregation into: mobile agent and runtime environment. The mobile agent is the software code on move while runtime system is the mobile agent server that approves the execution, communication, migration and cooperation of mobile agents. Each runtime environment runs atop the operating system as a middleware. It serves the execution environment for agent programs running itself on the top of the Java virtual machine (JVM) specified for the particular machine.
The software architecture of mobile agent server must continue to abide on all network nodes to which
This paper talks about Children’s Crisis treatment Center (CCTC). CCTC as a system is concern with meeting the needs of children and families with mental health and those that have experienced abuse, neglect and trauma. The focus here will be on the School Therapeutic Services component, the connection it has to the system and the environment and attempt to bring to light whether CCTC is functioning in line with its mission statement. I will also be describing my place in the institution as a system.
As such, he introduces a technique of identifying a spectrum of potential vulnerabilities and suggests procedures to deal with them. Systems Specification and High Order Language Implementation are categorized as items of high risk to attacks. Security Policy and Machine Language Implementation are classified as items of moderate risk of being vulnerable to attacks. Circuits Electronics and Device Physics are of low and very low risks respectively. He also discusses potential threats such as deceiving operating systems to grant access to file or data to unauthorized users through direct (overt) and indirect (convert) channels. Walker also says that lack of precise definition of trusted operating systems and the higher cost of building them are the significant drawbacks faced by the vendors. Vendors are concerned that if they build trusted operating systems, they might not be accepted by their customers. The only solution suggested by the author was to have someone or a company builds it, shares the technology used, and convinces the general public on the significance of it. Once it becomes accepted, then there will be a widespread use of trusted computer operating systems.
Mobile computing is the important information system infrastructure. Organization information system mainly get very good benefits from the Mobile computing. From work place and the normal can interact with Mobile computer is made possible by portable computer hardware, software, communication systems that a non-mobile organization information system. The accessibility, improves information quality, enhance management effectiveness all this potentially strategic technology is getting from Mobile computing. I am presenting the detail analysis, by using elucidate and support these asserted benefits of Mobile computing in the organizations. In additionally, a set of MOBILE framework information developed. I am explaining the benefits like defining the types of problems, opportunities and directives of Mobile computing. I am explaining History and efficiency of mobile computing. And I am explaining its business implications.
Computers have become part of our daily complex lives; we depend heavily on computers to help break our complicated lives down. Most people now prefer to do things the digital way and so does companies. Most of trading (buying and selling) is now online which requires computers. In order to satisfy our hunger for digital living, there is a need for technology called the operating system to carry out the activities we require our computers to do. Computers and technology come in different forms and sizes and due to the capitalistic nature of our economy everyone is allowed to come up with their own form of computer and even the technology to run it. In recent years’ companies have gained interest doing business digitally and since software have become easier to write or code, it is also vulnerable- easy for programmers to access and exploit called hacking. Hackers are unapproved clients who break into a technological framework, change or decimate data, frequently by introducing hazardous malware without the insight and assent of the host company. Companies are now at risk of losing much more than money by doing business the digital way. It is in this view that the Security Exchange
Mobile phones: Is wireless device that allows users to make calls, send text messages and send emails (with the smartphones). As JKJ, it is a state agent mobile phone is needed to be in touch with their customers and colleagues from outside the offices, such as calling the customers from the properties they need to rent or sell.
Griffiths also uses two, deeply contrasting ideas to highlight his personal political or social stance, as the characters of Eddie Waters and the agent, Challenor, are juxtaposed to one another. Water’s idea that one should “work through laughter, not for it”, implies a deep social purpose to comedy, whereas Challenor tells the comedians not “to be deep…we’re servants that’s all. They demand, we supply”. The fact that this play itself is a means of utilising comedy to convey deeper ideas, means the audience are more likely to vie with Waters, since he is encouraging the former ideal. The audience can see this as Griffith’s undying “honest belief in human perfectibility” coming through, as Chanellor becomes similar to a character in one of
Mobile computing is important to Google, Apple, and Facebook, mainly because the widespread use of smartphones and other mobile platforms has increased tremendously. Pretty soon, it is believed that
Abstract- The usage of smart phones is increasing nowadays, so the need for mobile applications has also increased as they make the life of end users easy. Android platform is one of the platforms that make the usage and development of these applications easy. As android is open source and the development of application and its usage is easy these features make android platform one of the popular platforms for a mobile application. [Ref-4]
Agent Communication Language (ACL) was implemented to ensure interoperability in the communication among AIDA’s various agents. To facilitate user interactions, a web user interface known as web controller was developed. Based on these methodologies, AIDA allows for users to: have better control over the individual agents that make up the greater system, create and register new agents either locally or remotely, enable or disable services by launching or stopping the related agent, schedule and reschedule the activities of agents, and monitor agent activity in real time (Cardoso et al.,
There are many theories of human behavior that are used in Social Work Practice. One of the human behavior theories that best relates to my research topic is the systems theory. Ludwig Von Bertalanffy was the first person to use the systems theory in 1949, but was not looked at by social workers until the 1960’s (Rogers, 2013). The systems theory helps us view human behavior through the results of active interactions between individuals and their social systems. Simply meaning that this theory helps provide a broad look at the client’s problems in his or her life. The basic tenets of this theory are that in order to understand human behavior you must look at the systems involved in the individual’s life because the systems are the central idea behind this theory (Rogers, 2013). Once you have established the systems involved in the person’s life you will then focus on each system individually and develop subsystems.
The reoccurring concept of the principal-agent problem can be defined as employees taking advantage of their employers, or in political terms, elected officials taking advantage of their constituents by hiding information and specialization. Specialization becomes problematic when the agent uses their specific knowledge, in which the principal is lacking, to manipulate the actions of the principal. This issue can be solved by hiring, monitoring, and firing the employees. This is done in politics by electing the official, monitoring their actions, and voting them out of office if the elected fails to do what they were elected to do. Politicians can specialize in certain areas to make themselves seem more desirable to their constituents, claiming to offer something no other politician offers, which in turn makes it easier to be voted into office.

Principal-Agent relationships occur in many forms in business. Understanding these relationships is crucial for investors in order to make better investment decisions.
Mobile computing has infiltrated every area of our planet and personal lives. We have become so dependent upon our mobile devices they are often referred to as our third limb. Regardless of race, color, creed or location, mobile technology has shrunk the entire world into the palm of our hands. Mobile technology has made research, communication with our friends and family, education, entertainment and even banking possible to do on the go.
Mobile computing is technology that has enabled users to obtain internet services while being in a state of constant motion. Conventionally, internet could only be accessed only via Ethernet cable and users had to sit on one place in order to access internet. In this way, there existed no concept of taking work to a trip or connecting to world anytime. With the invention of mobile computing, users can take their work in their hands. One can now get internet service anywhere needed.
