ABSTRACT:
Intelligent mobile agents are transmitted to computers at remote sites over a network having a relatively limited bandwidth. In order to provide the mobile agents with extended capabilities, yet to allow them to access information in near-real-time, the intelligent mobile agents dock with docking systems at the network nodes. The docking systems respond to the presence of the mobile agents, and provide extended capabilities to the agent. The extended capabilities, in turn, are made available to the various network nodes at which the agents may dock by loading from portable data storage media, or preferably by occasional loading from the network at off-peak times.
