在本文中，我们描述了杰克在网络（Ja-Net）架构的自适应服务在一个大规模的，开放的网络环境。Ja-Net利用生物启发的概念，实现了根据动态变化的网络条件和用户偏好自适应地创建/出现服务的内置功能。在Ja-Net中，服务由称为网络实体的自治系统组件的集合来实现。网络实体具有简单的自主行为，并使用Ja-NetACL（Agent通信语言）相互交互，共同提供服务。例如，网络实体从一个节点迁移到另一个节点，并找到一个新的网络实体进行交互。此外，网络实体可以与交互伙伴建立关系以形成提供服务的组。网络实体之间关系的强度是关系的有用性的量度，并且基于接收服务的用户所指示的满意度水平来调整。随着关系的增长，网络实体通过基于关系的强度减少要与之交互的网络实体的数量来自组织。因此，出现了一组网络实体，以提供用户喜欢的服务。我们实现了一个Ja-Net的原型，以验证Ja-Net的自主交互和服务涌现功能的可行性。
In this paper, we describe the Jack-in-the-Net (Ja-Net) architecture for adaptive services in a large scale, open network environment. Using biologically inspired concepts, Ja-Net achieves built-in capabilities to create/emerge services adaptively according to dynamically changing network conditions and user preferences. In Ja-Net, a service is implemented by a collection of autonomous system components called cyber-entities. Cyber-entities are autonomous with simple behaviors and interact with each other using Ja-NetACL (Agent Communication Language) to jointly provide a service. For instance, cyber-entities migrates from node to node and find a new cyber-entity to interact with. Also, cyber-entities may establish a relationship with interaction partners to form a group to provide a service. The strength of the relationship between cyber-entities is a measure for the usefulness of the relationship and is adjusted based on the level of satisfaction indicated by the user who received the service. As relationships grow, cyber-entities self-organize by reducing the number of cyber-entities to interact with based on the strength of the relationship. Consequently, a group of cyberentities emerge to provide services that users prefer. We implemented a prototype of Ja-Net to verify the feasibility of autonomous interaction and service emergence features of Ja-Net.
