Abstract
In this paper, we present an RCACM coordination model for mobile computing applications based on mobile agents. The key idea in RCACM is the role-based context-awareness hierarchical coordination model. In this model, local programmable reactive tuple space is introduced to address the context-aware coordination problems and hierarchical distributed tuples can make agents dynamically acquire information about resource location and availability according to their permissions; role mechanism is adopted for access control to prevent unauthorized access.
