摘要
The CoABS Grid is middleware that integrates heterogeneous agent-based, object-based, and legacy systems. It includes a method-based application programming interface to register agents, advertise agent capabilities, discover agents based on their capabilities, and send messages between agents. Agent registration and discovery are reliant on one or more lookup services. The experiments discussed in this paper investigate how timing of sequential agent registration and lookup varies as the total number of registered agents increases. No degradation in performance was observed in experiments with up to 10,000 agents for lookup. Minimal degradation in registration time was observed as the number of registered agents increased. Further experiments are planned.
