Abstract
The mobile agent paradigm has attracted many attentions recently but it is still not widely used. One of the barriers is the difficulty in protecting an agent from failure because an agent is able to migrate over the network autonomously. In this paper, a novel approach to protect an agent from failure is presented. The main characteristics include low network bandwidth consumption, high flexibility and feasibility to be applied in an open environment
