Autonomous Mobile Agents on Mobile Devices

Via pasta and vinegar, Designing a Mobile Music Sharing System Based on Emergent Properties by Maria Håkansson, Mattias Jacobsson, Lars Erik Holmquist (Future Applications Lab, Viktoria Institute, Sweden), describes an autonomous sharing of music files on mobile devices with bluetooth

It made me think about an old project of mine on autonomous and mobile agents. Done in Jini, agents could move from one system (agent hosts, not mobile devices) to another and take along their program code as well as their data.
