The purpose of this study is to examine internet agent of IT(Information Technology) in health care industry Since IT is essential for corporate strategy in service management, this section examines IT in health care service, especially from the view of 'Agent Technology' that has been recently issued. Intelligent agent is a new paradigm for developing software applications. More than this, agent-based computing has been hailed as 'the next significant break-through in software development' and 'the new revolution in software'. And health care service is a non-mechanic, human-based service. This paper reviewed what possible suggestions or advices can be made to the health care service. Since many health care services using internet have been attempted over the recent years, this study will hopefully be able to come up with good suggestions from many aspects. Thus, information inequality between producer(physician) and consumer(patient) in health care service will be decreased through the introduction of agent technology.

CAMUS 시스템은 물리적으로 탑재되는 위치에 따라서 CAMUS 메인 서버와 Service Agent Manager 로 구분된다. Service Agent Manager 는 한 환경내에 존재하는 센서와 장치들 (Service Agent)을 관리 및 제어하는 프로그램이다. Service Agent Manager 는 여러 다양한 환경에 설치되어 환경 내에 위치한 다양한 센서로부터 정보를 얻고 그 정보를 CAMUS 메인 서버에 전달하는 한편 CAMUS 메인 서버로부터 실행명령을 받아 환경 내 장치를 제어하는 역활을 한다. 이러한 Service Agent Manager 는 임의의 공간 내에 설치될 수 있으며 로봇단말이나 개인 휴대단말 등에도 설치될 수 있다.

One of the major issues in emerging cloud management system needs the efficient service level agreement negotiation framework, with an optimal negotiation strategy. Most researchers focus mainly on the atomic service negotiation model, with the assistance of the Agent Controller in the broker part to reduce the total negotiation time, and communication overhead to some extent. This research focuses mainly on composite service negotiation, to further minimize both the total negotiation time and communication overhead through the pre-request optimization of broker strategy. The main objective of this research work is to introduce an Automated Dynamic Service Level Agreement Negotiation Framework (ADSLANF), which consists of an Intelligent Third-party Broker for composite service negotiation between the consumer and the service provider. A broker consists of an Intelligent Third-party Broker Agent, Agent Controller and Additional Agent Controller for managing and controlling its negotiation strategy. The Intelligent third-party broker agent manages the composite service by assigning its atomic services to multiple Agent Controllers. Using the Additional Agent Controllers, the Agent Controllers manage the concurrent negotiation with multiple service providers. In this process, the total negotiation time value is reduced partially. Further, the negotiation strategy is optimized in two stages, viz., Classified Similarity Matching (CSM) approach, and the Truncated Negotiation Group Gale Shapely Stable Matching (TNGGSSM) approach, to minimize the communication overhead.

Using home network system including home server, home service robot, a variety of device, it is generally known that application of Multi Agent System for performing variously distributed process that can be occur in home environment, is efficient method. In this system, it is intelligent service robot that a key of human interface and physical service offer Therefore, using application of established multi agent system, we can defined Multi Agent Robot System. In 'open' home environment, between all agent data interaction and cooperation are needed for Multi Agent System offer to user that more efficient service. For this, we focus our attention on define as agent that can autonomic drive and offer to user that physical service robots and, design, suggest the simulator can display that between robot agents communication or between other agents, like home server, and robot agents communication information to user interface.

We have implemented a Jini-Agent system which enables resource-limited mobile devices to utilize the Jini connection service. The Jini-Agent system supports Jini connection technologies to mobile devices without additional client program installation in it. It also supports a dynamic service list which helps the mobile devices to search and to utilize the services through web browser in real time. A couple of examples such as a file search service and a print service with mobile devices have been demonstrated by using the Jini-Agent system.

In this paper, we defined agent interface standard and messages for the control and management of agent. Agent interface is defined by messages exchanged between each component of the agent system environment, such as agent, agent system that creates and controls the agent, client that requests the service, agent master that mediates the service, agent manager that performs management functions of the agent. Agent interface is defined after the MAF of the OMG and the agent standard of the FIPA. Experiments are done for the application using agent interface and messages of this paper. The test network was the content distribution network using agent service, and we controled and managed the test network through the agent interface.

In this paper, we implemented the FIPA-OS framework bundle and service agent bundle over the OSGi service platform in home-sewer platform. The FIPA-OS is the first open source implementation of the FIPA standards and is a component-based toolkit implemented in Java. The FIPA-OS bundle is composed of two bundles. One is the communication bundle such as RMI, IIOP, HTTP and ACC. Another is the agent loader bundle. Experiments are conducted on the service agent communication and loading by the agent loader bundle, and the proposed bundles are successfully installed, stopped, and uninstalled over the OSGi service platform.

In this paper, we analyzed the known agent tracking models and proposed a new agent tracking model based on the distributed event service that always assures reliable tracking. Also we experimented the Performance of the event servers on the agent monitoring system that implements the distributed event service and showed their performance to decrement gracefully. The proposed tracking model doesn't make only several clients trace a mobile agent which moves among agent servers autonomously, but also supports two types of agent tracking agent location tracking that notifies agent location to the clients and path establishment that maintains reliable connection between agent servers for message delivery.

Multi-agent technologies are essential in realizing the upcoming ubiquitous environment. In the multi-agent environment, each agent has its own set of services and stores these services in the service repository of the multi-agent system. By using this repository, the user can retrieve the most appropriate service. In this paper, we propose an efficient service repository architecture that can improve the existing agent-based service discovery.

As the number of people going aboard is growing and technology is developed rapidly, Chinese customers are also getting better understanding about overseas products, and they hope to get less expensive and better ones, which leads to the growth of the online overseas purchasing agent service. In this paper, we tried to analyze the factors that impact the usage of online overseas purchasing agent service using the survey data. We found that customers pursue not only the reasonable prices but also enjoyment of shopping in the online overseas purchasing agent service. In addition, product scarcity and the information literacy of a customer were positively related with the use of online overseas purchasing agent service.
