hi,
  I'm new to mobile agent, but i'm interested in that and plan to continue
my study on that if possible. Now I'm required to prepare a proposal related
with mobile agent and I want to use racket as the implementation language,
but i'm not sure if this is really applicable, so i'm asking here for some
suggest.
  As the background reading, I've been briefly read papers "Scheme
implementation of the functional language for mobile agents with dynamic
extension <http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpls/abs_all.jsp?arnumber=1555148>"
and "Language Support for Mobile
Agents,<http://www.cs.virginia.edu/~knabe/dissertation.ps.gz>".
Both implementation are based on functional programming language, so I feel
it should be feasible in Racket as well. After further searching, it seems
IBM's "Aglets <http://www.trl.ibm.com/aglets/>" is the most popular
implementation, in Java, and Python also has a prototyping framework
MAF<http://maf.sourceforge.net/> which
supports "foreign agent", and
Pyrover<https://www.taupro.com/ss/pyrover.html> which
I cannot open the link for (just read the cached page). I'm wondering is
there any similar framework or implementation in scheme or racket I can
reference from ? Thanks!
