Abstract

See full text

In accordance with the present invention, a mobile agent object executes a first method on a first computer, migrates from the first computer to a second computer, and executes a second method on the second computer. The first and second methods and first and second computers are designated in an itinerary. The agent includes both data and executable code which are serialized for transmission from the first computer to the second computer as data. The data containing the agent is then deserialized in the second computer to regenerate the agent in the form of an object. The executable code portion of the agent can be supplemented with code from a home codebase located on another computer.
