近年來，常常應用行動式代理人技術於商業流程管理領域，本研究基於行動式代理人技術修改ADEPT稱為Mobile-ADEPT，依據代理人的可移動性(mobility)，針對代理人的溝通方式、生命週期與環境的認知能力來修改。溝通方式改變ADEPT外部架構，可減低網路負荷且使代理人間的溝通更具彈性；代理人生命週期與環境認知能力修改內部代理人架構，Mobile-ADEPT架構為以文件驅動為主代理人系統(document-driven agent system)，將每件文件封裝為文件代理人，可以達成(1)可追蹤能力：系統管理者容易對文件流程作監控；(2)文件的生命週期：利用行動代理人的生命週期管理文件的生命週期，並且達成並行處理；(3)動態排程：文件代理人可以視環境的變動，動態改變文件流程；文件管理代理人可以根據環境的情況，動態改變提供服務的排程。 Recently, mobile agent technology is often applied to business process management. In this thesis, we improve ADEPT architecture based on mobile agent technology called Mobile-ADEPT. According to mobility, we improve communication, agent life cycle and environment sensibility. The communication affects ADEPT external architecture that can reduce the network loading and make the communication between agents more flexible. The agent life cycle and the environment sensibility affect ADEPT internal architecture. Our Mobile-ADEPT architecture is a document-driven agent system and encapsulates a single document per agent. It can achieve (1) Traceability: An administrator can easily monitor document processes, (2) Document life cycle: it uses agent life cycle to manage document life cycle and concurrent processing, (3) Dynamic scheduling: a document agent can dynamically schedule its itinerary; a document control agent can dynamically schedule its services.
