Resumo

This paper proposes an overview and comparison of mobile agent platforms for the development of wireless sensor network applications. In particular, the architecture, programming model and basic performance of two Java-based agent platforms, Mobile Agent Platform for Sun SPOT (MAPS) and Agent Factory Micro Edition (AFME), are discussed and evaluated. Finally, a simple yet effective case study concerning a mobile agent-based monitoring system for remote sensing and aggregation is proposed. The proposed case study is developed both in MAPS and AFME so allowing to analyze the differences of their programming models.
