Mobile agents promise to bring in a new era in the field of World Wide Web and Internet computing. Although mobile agents have been around for sometime their full potential has not been realized due to the lack of a suitable infrastructure that would allow for their deployment and seamless integration on the Internet. In this paper we propose a system based on HTTP and existing Web server that facilitates the deployment of Java based mobile agents on the Internet. By requiring no more than Web servers as the mobile agent's environment, it will be possible to overcome the current hurdles and make mobile agents a pervasive model for Internet computing. In this paper, we present aZIMAs, a simple mobile agent environment and a potentially ubiquitous server platform. © 2002 IEEE.
