Abstract:
Mobile software agents are a new tool which may assist rural and remote physicians to obtain medical data from digital medical libraries on the Internet. Mobile agents are autonomous software objects that can move from digital library to digital library, analysing data to determine their usefulness to the user. A proof-of-concept system applied to mammography is proposed and a simplified prototype for this system is reported. Enhancement and development plans for the complete proof-of-concept system are suggested.
