However, pervasive computing presents new challenges to existing mobile agent systems, especially the need for the context-aware self-configuring collaboration with the services provided by the physical objects. In order to address the problem, this paper presents a self-configuring personal agent platform to enable a mobile agent to adapt to the on-demand collaboration with the services. The platform consists of a Ubiquitous Intelligent Object (UIO) model the pervasive computing environment modeling, a code repository to provide executable codes which can be downloaded and instantiated as a mobile agent's capability at runtime, a service registry server for UIOs to publish and subscribe services, and personal agents, one for each individual user. A prototype of platform has been implemented as proof-of-concept and a preliminary performance study has also been carried out on it using a case study.
