Abstract
In this paper, we introduce Mobile Agent Procedures (MAPs) as an efficient, convenient and transparent means of utilizing available networked computational resources. MAPs are mobile remote procedures that are executed in the most appropriate site in a cluster of heterogeneous work- stations. Procedure migration is performed by middleware software transparently from the application and without re- lying on operating system or compiler support. The imple- mentation platform for MAPs are mobile agents in Java.Keywords
