This paper proposed a new method for network self-fault management (NSFM) based on two technologies: intelligent agent to automate fault management tasks, and Windows Management Instrumentations (WMI) to identify the fault faster when resources are independent (different type of devices). The proposed network self-fault management reduced the load of network traffic by reducing the request and response between the server and client, which achieves less downtime for each node in state of fault occurring in the client. The performance of the proposed system is measured by three measures: efficiency, availability, and reliability. A high efficiency average is obtained depending on the faults occurred in the system which reaches to 92.19%, availability 92.375%, and reliability 100%. The proposed system managed five devices. The NSFM implemented using Java and C# languages.

“…The expression that gives the probability p to select a next hop j from node i is defined in equation (2). P = ψ jt / Ʃψ kt (2) In order to consider route requests in an equitable manner leading to a self-organizing system and a better management of frequent changes in the network topology, we propose to set up an evaporation process.…”

“…For this, we focused on multi-agent approach which has a particular interest in the distributed problems in general, and for which it is difficult to prevent all situations. The multi-agent systems [1][2][3] are well suited for the design of distributed systems. Several autonomous agents interact or work together to perform a set of tasks or satisfy a set of goals, and moving the problem of analyzing from a global level to a local level and reducing the design complexity.…”

Abstract-Dynamic networks can be tremendously challenging when deploying distributed applications on autonomous machines. Further, implementing services like routing and security for such networks is generally difficult and problematic. Consequently, multi-agent systems are well suited for designing distributed systems where several autonomous agents interact or work together to perform a set of tasks or satisfy a set of goals, hence moving the problem of analyzing from a global level to a local level therefore reducing the design complexity. In our previous paper, we presented a Multi Agent system model that has been adapted to develop a routing protocol for ad hoc networks. Wireless ad hoc networks are infrastructureless networks that comprise wireless mobile nodes which areable to communicate with each other outside the wireless transmission range. Due to frequent network topology changes, the limited energy and underlying bandwidth, routing becomes a challenging task. In this paper, we present a new version of routing algorithm devoted for mobile ad hoc networks. Our new algorithm helps controlling the network congestion and increasing the network lifetime by effectively managing nodes energy and link cost. The performance of our new version is validated through simulation. The Simulation results show the effectiveness and efficiency of our new algorithm compared to stae-of-the-artsolutions in terms of various performance metrics.

“…System-level agents bring high flexibility to the system, because new functionalities can be easily added in form of new agents. When used for network management, systemlevel agents have additional important benefits, such as dynamic network building and maintenance, efficient discovery of faulty network nodes, and remote maintenance features [12,20,21,33].…”

Dynamic networks of personal computers are characterized by sudden, unexpected failures of computational nodes, as well as the addition of new computers at any given moment. This paper presents a new agentoriented system for distributed computing, named ADiS, specifically designed for operating in these kinds of environments. The system relies on the agent technology in order to adapt to dynamic changes in a computational network. Originally envisioned as a distributed system for distance matrix calculations, ADiS has recently been redesigned as a general-purpose, extensible architecture for arbitrary computing in a distributed environment. Experimental results demonstrate that the usage of ADiS has a significant positive impact onto the execution time of lengthy processes.
