Abstract:
This paper presents a case study namely Mobile
Agent Based Online Examination System and the roles of mobile
agents used in the system. The system provides the
infrastructure for conducting computer-based examination
which the candidates may be spread over in large areas. The
system aims to map the real world examination system and
concentrates the full stage of the examination from question
setting to answer evaluation. By implementing this system using
Mobile Agent gives us several advantages like scalability, flexible
structuring, dynamic extensibility, push-pull modes of
information dissemination, evaluation of subjective question,
and transparency to varying communication channels,
application layer multicasting, network latencies and dynamic
content delivery.
