| Abstract |
|
In modern power systems and other industrial concerns,
a large quantity of data is produced by condition monitoring
and control systems. This data is used for a variety of purposes,
and is often distributed over a number of sites. This
paper describes part of a prototype system which combines
mobile agents with a Foundation for Intelligent Physical
Agents (FIPA)-based multi-agent system to provide remote
analysis and reporting functions for data stored in power
substation databases. A model of mobile agent performance
in this application is derived, and a number of experimental
results regarding the relative performance of mobile agents
and static client-server agents are presented. These results
suggest that in certain circumstances mobile agents have
the potential to greatly increase the performance of this application.
A comparison between using wrapper agents and
direct database access for data retrieval is also performed.
