As a widely used fault tolerance technique, checkpointing has evolved into several schemes: independent, coordinated, and communication-induced (CIC). Independent and coordinated checkpointing have been adopted in many works on fault tolerant mobile agent (MA) systems. However, CIC, a flexible, efficient, and scalable checkpointing scheme, has not been applied to MA systems. Based on the analysis of the behavior of mobile agent, we argue that CIC is a well suited checkpointing scheme for MA systems. CIC not only establishes the consistent recovery lines efficiently but also integrates well with the independent checkpointing for reliable MA migration. Here, we propose an important improvement to CIC, referred to as the deferred message processing based CIC algorithm (DM-CIC), which achieves higher efficiency by exempting the CIC algorithm from making the forced checkpoints in MA systems. Through simulation, we find out that DM-CIC is stable and better suited to large scale MA systems.

Although English has become the standard language in various areas, most people do not use it in local activities. To increase the mutual understanding of different cultures with different languages, it is essential to build a language infrastructure on top of the Internet that improves the accessibility and usability of existing online language services so that users can create new cross-language services for their communities. To realize this infrastructure, this paper proposes the language grid. The language grid consists of the ”horizontal language grid,” which connects the standard languages of nations, and ”vertical language grid,” which combines the language services generated by communities. This approach can facilitate intercultural collaboration through the Internet, such as international online collaborative learning.

This paper proposes a prediction approach that combines grey prediction model with three-layer computing architecture in Web environment. It presents a refined prediction formula to enhance the scalability and usage scope of the Web prediction systems. It layouts a three layer architecture for the Web prediction system to reduce the network traffic and maintain load balance. A traffic decision support system is presented to illustrate the proposed approach.

This article explores the utility of neural network ensembles in knowledge discovery and integration. A novel neural network ensemble model KBNNE (Knowledge-Based Neural Network Ensembles) integrating KDD (Knowledge Discovery in Database) techniques and neural network modeling algorithms by ¿parallel operations¿ is proposed. Through balancing the relative importance of knowledge learned by induction and deduction, KBNNE can avoid the knowledge loss and enhance the "transparency" of neural network models. The effectiveness of the proposed model is demonstrated through computer simulations on simple artificial problems and an actual modeling problem.
