Description
Summary:Information Systems have progressed from stand-alone platform-centric systems to network-centric intelligent systems with the rapid advancement in Information and Communication Technology.This is an evolutionary process embedded with new challenges and rewards for the users of new information systems.The migration of these systems towards network centric computing has made these systems susceptible to networking paradigm problems opening a whole new avenue of research to address the typical problems of these information systems.The user demand on information service systems is never predictable and is always changing, creating new challenges for the designers and managers of these systems.Autonomous mobile agents employed in a networked environment have shown a lot of potential to inject intelligence and to handle the heterogeneous user demands of such systems under constantly evolving conditions.This paper investigates the employment of faded information field architecture employing mobile agents to address the constantly evolving condition of an information service system.The proposed architecture was simulated with promising results in unison with predicted behavior.
