In Proceedings of the 33rd Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences. Maui, Hawaii, USA.http://hdl.handle.net/10198/4735Information Technology has been under unprecedented transformations and it is dramatically changing the way of work inside organizations. Information management systems must be adequate to cope with the profound effects of this evolution, which expectations includes the introduction into the networks of enormous quantities of different elements. Mobile agent paradigm seems to be, for many researchers, the right solution to deal with the pressures of these new demands. This paper discuss the issues around mobility of code on network management environments and presents ongoing work that provides mobility capability to distributed managers upon recent work of IETF’s Disman working group.engconference paper
