Workflow Management Systems(WFMSs) is a software system that supports that specification and execution of business processes. In this paper, we proposed Multi Agent Based Workflow Modeling System which was implemented by Java application. The proposed workflow modeling system is divided into four agents; Session, Organization, Relevant Data. Invoked Application. We adapted ICN(Information Control Net) to check workflow model syntax, And the proposed modeling system provide the function to import/export WPDL which was defined in WfMC.

The next generation of web applications will need to be larger, more complex, and flexible Agent-oriented systems have great potential for these e-commerce applications. Agents can dynamically discover and compose e-services and mediate interactions. Development of software agents with CBD (Component Based Development) has proved to be successful in increasing speed to market of development Projects, lowering the development cost and providing better qualify. In this thesis, we propose a systemic development process for software agents using component and UML (Unified Modeling Language). We suggest a etA (e-business Agent) CBD reference architecture for layer the related components through identification and classification of general agent and e-business agent. We also propose the ebA-CBD process that is a guideline to consider the best features of existing agent oriented software engineering methodologies, while grounding agent-oriented concepts in the same underlying semantic framework used by UML. We first developed the agent components specification and modeled it with Goal, Role, Interaction, and Architecture Model. Based on this, we developed e-CPIMAS (e-Commerce Product Information Mailing Agent System) as a case study that provides the product information's mailing service according to proposed process formality. We finally describe how these concepts may assist in increasing the efficiency reusability, productivity and quality to develop the business application and e-business agent.

This paper proposes a new approach to rollback-recovery using multi-agent in distributed computing system. Previous rollback-recovery protocols are dependent on inherent communication and operating system, which causes a decline of computing performance in distributed computing system. By using multi-agent, we propose rollback-recovery protocol that is independent on operating system. We define three kinds of agent. One is a recovery agent that performs rollback-recovery protocol after a failure. Other is an information agent that constructs domain knowledge as a rule of fault tolerance and information during failure-free operation. The other is facilitator agent that controls the efficient communication between agents. Also we propose rollback-recovery protocol using multi-agent and simulated the proposed rollback-recovery protocol using JAVA and agent communication language in CORBA environment.

본 논문은 기존의 멀티 에이전트 기반의 결함 포용 기법에서 결함 포용 정보를 쓰레기 처리하는 쓰레기 처리 에이전트를 제안한다. 쓰레기 처리 에이전트는 정보 에이전트의 영역지식에서 불필요한 결함 포용 정보의 제거 시점을 찾아내고, 이를 정보 에이전트에 알린다. 쓰레기 처리기법에 멀티 에이전트 개념의 도입은 부가적인 메시지 전송을 하지 않고 쓰레기 처리 에이전트를 이용하여 운영체제에서 독립적인 쓰레기 처리를 가능하게 한다. 결함 포용 정보의 쓰레기 처리는 프로세스의 검사점 간격을 이용하여 쓰레기 처리 시점을 결정하기에 결함 발생 후 재수행시 손실메시지 발생으로 인한 불필요한 복귀를 막을 수 있고 에이전트를 사용함으로 쓰레기 처리 기법의 이식성과 확장성의 증대론 기대할 수 있다.

The companies need the enterprise-wide support environment to build the competency to gather VOM(Voice of Market) in the process of preparing and implementing the strategy and to help establishing and managing the business process in order to secure the continuous competitive edge The enterprise-wide support environment to establish, operate, improve and evaluate the business process must be carried out. In this paper we define the method to define process and business rule in order to enable accurate execution of the process. Furthermore, collection and refection of accurate data concerning the competency of individuals, the subjects of the process execution, allows prevention of weakness of the process execution result and is the basis for identifying the areas of improvement. Therefore, high visibility can be attained through the work knowledge and processes presented in rules, and it can help firmly establish the process centered work culture (or system) in the organization by process improvement strictly based on data.

Modeller is defined as the office work procedures(business processes), and that is systemically based upon the real-time collaborative operations by a set of actors, which is called group. This paper describes the design of the ICN editor that is operable under the real-time collaborative computing environment. We use the database agent that enables the ICN editor to operate among multiple actors(group) through the event-driven collaboration platform. Consequently, a set of workflow and business processes defined through this editor is not only stored onto database but also transformed into the format of the workflow process definition language(WPDL) that is a standardized worflow description and specification language proposed by the workflow management coalition(WfMC). This method can improve the performance of workflow processing by minimizing the workflow execution cost occurred during workflow definition.

When mobile node moves into the different IP address area, the mobile node can be set the proper environment parameters automatically by DHCP. If we extend the DHCP option field to support the roles of home agent and foreign agent in mobile IP protocol, mobile node can perform the foreign address registration process of mobile IP protocol when DHCP IP environment is achieved automatically, too. DHCP is supplied in the PC with a series of Windows NT. This paper proposes and implements the functional blocks of extended DHCP nodes and this enables the DHCP node have a role of mobile IP agents without another protocol functional blocks.

개인화된 IT 서비스의 트렌드는 학습자를 위한 튜터링 시스템에도 학습자의 능력과 수요를 고려한 개인화된 서비스를 요구하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 지능형 튜터링 시스템을 위해 사용자 프로파일 에이전트(UPA, User Profile Agent) 모델을 제안한다. UPA는 프로세스, 메타데이터, 사용자 인터페이스로 구성되어 있으며, 사용자의 기본 정보와 학력 및 경력 정보, 학습 영역 지식, 개인 능력 측정 정보를 메타데이터에 기반으로 저장한다. 저장된 사용자 프로파일 정보는 에이전트의 프로세스에 의해 가공되어 학습자에게 유용한 정보를 제공할 수 있도록 기여할 수 있다. 향후 본 논문의 모형 설계를 기반으로 이러닝 기술 환경의 변화를 반영한 지능화된 지능형 튜터링 시스템 개발에 기여할 수 있도록 연구 발전시키는 것을 목표로 한다.

As the structure of an enterprise becomes complicated and distributed, the interoperability between workflow systems for the process automation among partners or departments is rising as an important issue. For the interoperability between workflow systems, we propose a data exchange scenario based on mobile agents. The scenario includes sequence diagrams and methods defined by UML. The mobile agents are designed based on the mobile agent standard, MASIF, developed by OMG. In order to prove the applicability of the mobile agent technology to workflow interoperability, we have developed a prototype function which creates and transfers mobile agents.

컴퓨터 분야에서 에이전트의 개념은 전자 상거래, 정보 검색과 같은 많은 어플리케이션들에 응용되어 중요 시 되고 있다. 하지만, 아직까지 지능성을 가진 테스트 도구는 없었다. 이 논문에서 제안하는 테스트 에이전트 시스템은 에이전트의 특성을 가지고 테스터를 도와주는 테스트 도구이다. 테스트 에이전트 시스템은 객체지향 테스트 프로세스를 따라 테스터의 일을 대행해 주고, 테스터의 간섭을 최소화 시켜 준다. 이 시스템은 자동 생성된 많은 양의 테스트케이스에서 중복이 없고 일관성 있는 테스트케이스를 지능적으로 선택하여 테스트 시간을 단축시켜 준다. 테스트 에이전트 시스템은 3개의 에이전트 User Interface Agent, Test Case Selection & Testing Agent, Regression Test Agent로 구성된다. 특히 Test Case Selection & Testing Agent은 RE-Rule과 CTS-Rule을 통하여 중복이 없고 일관성 있는 테스트케이스를 지능적으로 선택하며, Regression Test Agent는 RRTIS-Rule을 통해 리그래션 테스트 항목을 지능적으로 선택한다.
