Abstract :
The major design challenge to realize intelligent home network services is organizing distributed as well as heterogeneous home devices effectively. To meet the design challenge, a mobile agent space based multi-agent architecture is considered in this paper. MASSIHN is a home network system that links consumer electronics and computing devices in the home. The proposed approach can execute MASSIHN applications from many commonly used devices such as PDA and laptops.
