The development of multi-agent system for biological information retrieval from heterogeneous distributed data and knowledge sources

Distribution, complexity, heterogeneity of resources, software, and hardware are challenges in distributed applications. Intelligent mobile agent is used to handles distributed data, control, expertise, and resources in distributed applications. It is an executing program that is capable of flexible...
