GRID Enabled Applications for Handheld Devices
We are considering JADE-LEAP add-on/project of JADE as a tool to provide load balancing using mobile agents on handheld devices. I am using agents to take job schedule from PDA and execute it on desktop and send result objects back to PDA.
Personal Assistant
A FIPA compliant personal Assistant which alleviates information overload problems. More specifically it is required to do the following: Filtering Email (Identifies SPAM from non-SPAM and gets better as training progresses); Filtering Articles based on interest (Similar concept to classification of emails, except here we are classifying articles in two categories interesting and not-interesting only.); Auto summarization of text (This will attempt to create summaries of articles and textual items).
Agent Platform Development Group
We are using JADE for Research purposes. We found it a mature, especially its agent architecture which is quite rich, its capability of scheduling the behaviors
AND behaviors by itself which are handled by a single thread. JADE is adapted as a role model Platform.
