About:
Unix Mobile Agents is a generic, flexible, easy to use mobile agent architecture implemented in a set of bash scripts. This design is made to be trivial to deploy and setup. Agents can be configured to traverse the network in sorted order, in user defined order, or as a random walk. They can also run in a repeated loop, or in a single pass through the network. Connections are made via public-key SSH authentication, and the screen utility is used to allow agents to run without requiring terminals.

[»] Next on tap

Next on the list of features is a way to specify what nodes to run on in the agent network. This will be both inclusive and exclusive. Namely, given the definition of the agent network, only run on this subset, or run on everything but this subset.
