Title: | A language for description and verification of mobile agent algorithms | Authors: | Li, X Cao, J He, Y |
Issue Date: | 2004 | Source: | CIT04 : The Fourth International Conference on Computer and Information Technology, September 14-16, 2004, Wuhan, China, p. 546-553 | Abstract: | Mobile agent technology has been widely adopted in network computing, whereas it remains a problem to design and verify the mobile agent algorithms in a platform independent way. In this paper, we propose a script language called SMAL to design the mobile agent algorithm. The semantics of SMAL is briefly introduced with its execution model. Furthermore, to verify the agent program in SMAL, a transformation function for converting SMAL program to Mobile UNITY specification is presented, which would facilitate making use of UNITY-logic to prove the correctness properties of the program. | Keywords: | Mobile agents Mobile computing Program verification Specification languages |
