Abstract

A fault-tolerant model for mobile agents executing in large distributed networks is proposed. The life expectancy of mobile agents in the model, including the average time consuming of mobile agents between two hosts, the average number of hosts agents will visit and the agents' life expectancy, is analyzed. The basis of the model is the use of stochastic regularities of mobile agents' behavior. The results show that the agents' behavior is influenced by hosts' error rate and network connectivity.
