| Abstract(in English) | A peer-to-peer (P2P) system consists of a number of decentralized distributed network nodes that are capable of sharing resources without centralized supervision. One of the most important functions in P2P system is the location of resources, and it is generally hard to achieve due to the intrinsic nature of P2P, i.e. dynamic re-configuration of the network. We have proposed and implemented an efficient resource locating method in a pure P2P system based on a cooperative multiple agent system. In order to optimize the behaviors of cooperative multiple agents, we utilize the ant colony optimization (ACO) algorithm that assists mobile agents to migrate toward relatively resource-rich nodes. Efficient migration is achieved through an indirect communications that are typical of social insects, called stigmergy. When an agent finds a resource-rich node, it strengthens the path toward the node to gain the efficiency. In this paper, we report the integration of the ACO method to optimize the behaviors of the mobile multiple agents. |
