Abstract :
In this paper we devise a stationary agent to serve as a coordinator between federates and mobile clients. Furthermore, we employ a logical ring construction to facilitate the object sharing and matching. A navigating agent dispatched by the stationary agent can follow a mobile client to transport to the target. Besides, once the client requires more remote objects, the navigating agent refers to the itinerary that was specified by the stationary agent to migrate to the next destination for acquiring them. The experimental results show that the usage of mobile agents can increase more capabilities, flexibilities, and adaptabilities to most large-scale simulations
