Abstract. Based on the use of location and available car seats, Car sharing systems allowed a substantial number of people to share car rides.This paper proposes the initial phase of Smart Ride Seeker (SRS), which is a Car Pooling-like technique for distributing resources among a community. This paper develops the SRS technique through a mobile-based application that allows the mapping of ride seekers ’ locations along with the locations of available cars on a graphical interface/map, giving the possibility to calculate the optimal path for both the ride giver and seeker to fulfill their demands.

This paper presents a possible roadmap for what we call a “Sweeper-Agent”: an environment-friendly agents-based mobile technique, which is carried out within the activities of BlueAgents, a newly-formed research project focusing on the integration of mobile Bluetooth communications and Agent-based applications. We foresee an architecture of a service management technique that would increase the efficiency of mobile service. This paper proceeds in four sections. The first section outlines the state of the art of Agent-Oriented Architectures, and the motivation behind our research. The next section explains the Sweeper-Agent framework that uses Agent-Based Recommendations-Tree for mobile application, and how this will help mobile applications developers. Then we introduces Sweeper-Agent foreseeable integrations. And we describes the Sweeper-Agent positioning within the already implemented ToothAgent. Finally, we demonstrates the value-added service opportunities that may occur when Sweeper-Agent is implemented within a mobileagent architecture.

Complex information systems have numerous design variables that are systematically decided upon during the design process. In high-variability systems, some of these decisions are left open and deferred to later stages. For example, in product line architectures, some decision variables are used to generate families of products with variations in features. In user-adaptive systems, the behavior of the system is determined at runtime, based on user characteristics and preferences. In this paper, we propose to characterize variability in terms of boundaries in design decision graphs which depict the space of alternatives. A design decision about variability, such as what choices should be left to the user and which ones should be fixed at which stage in the design process, is then a question of where to place that decision boundary along some path in the relevant decision graph. 1.

Abstract. Independence, intelligence and interactiveness are making software agents strongly approach the development of advanced service applications for both, pocket and fixed computing devices. In this paper we present an interactions protocol that is used by intelligent agents operating in a dynamic environment. In particular, we focus our research on the situation where a multi-agent system is serving lightweight devices through advanced communication methods (e.g., Bluetooth). Like similar contributions, our interactions protocol provides agents with a monetary system and a mechanism for feedback calculation. The goal of our research was to accelerate efficient agents interactions while resolving end-user composite tasks. 1

portals, but yet the same question remains pending, is it Common interests among people in different possible to make similar internet services, if not the communities and levels are driving plenty of research same ones, smarter, conspicuous and finally groups and industry developers to pay more attention portable?. to such a vast zone of opportunities. Nowadays, unifying service architectures and implementations has Software Engineering [2] is the process of combining become achievable, advanced and sophisticated mobile science, engineering, math and design in order to assist services early-adopters and late-integrators are the software deployment process, and software standing over one tangible concept; trouble-free life engineers have got the authority to either facilitate or throughout hassle-free services, system design complicate the prequalification process [Jennings, 4], flexibility and support is established through superior which is consequently reflecting on the entire and refined research methodologies and techniques. In application implementation process. It is not a this paper, we introduce a new form of previously coincidence that a complex software was found as implemented architecture: ToothAgent, we perform a much as it is shocking to let this application interface simple amplification process that helps concatenating badly with end-users. ToothAgent newly proposed schemes. We confirm a possible augmentation then we demonstrate the According to [ 3] foreseen architecture possible integrations. “agent is an encapsulated computer system that is situated in some environment, and that is capable of flexible, autonomous action in that environment in order to meet its design objectives”

Abstract. A diverse range of architectures and concepts was proposed by scholars within the theme of Car Pooling Problem solving. Most of these scholars have at-tempted to put together two major elements: the need for people to move from a place to another, and the resources used to accomplish this action. Based on the use of location and available car seats, Car sharing systems allowed a substantial num-ber of people to share car rides. These systems would, among other advantages, rationalize energy consumption, save money, and decrease traffic jams and human stress, and eventually make a significant improvement in human life. This paper proposes the initial phase of Smart Ride Seeker (SRS), which is a Car Pooling-like technique for distributing resources among a community that shares the same goals. This SRS technique will be developed through a mobile-based application that al-lows the mapping of ride seekers ’ locations along with the locations of available cars on a graphical interface/map, giving the possibility to calculate the fastest and simplest path for both the ride giver and seeker to meet and fulfill their demand.
