Abstract
In this paper, we propose a framework of Internet marketplaces on the basis of mobile agent. It not only simulates real commercial activities by consumers, agents and merchants, but also provides an environment for parallel processing. The latter is particularly important as more shops (sites) can be searched in real time to provide consumers with better choices. The conducted experiments show that, in comparison with several serial mobile agent models, parallel mobile agent model can improve the performance significantly.
