Abstract: In mobile agent systems, in order to make mobile agents(MA) cooperate well, and to locate mobile agents quickly, it is necessary to design an efficient and reliable MA locating protocol. It should meet the requirements proposed by traditional distributed systems, like transparency, scalability and efficiency, and maintain the consistency of the information concerning the MA environment. A new MA locating protocol called DRSP(Distributed Registration Search Protocol) was proposed to meet all the requirements above, and the specific details in DRSP were described. Its consistency was proved by a search program.
