Title: Secure Partial Results Mobile agent technology has been around for many years, yet it has not had its break-through thus far, a major bottle-neck being the security aspects of this technology. This thesis evolves around a protocol called Secure Partial Results that seeks to ensure the security of partial results generated at some remote host. To this end, the different classes of mobile agent security are introduced, based on which this protocol is put into context with already existing research. Thereafter, various approaches to ensure mobile agent security and recent developments in these areas are evaluated, followed by an analysis of various security properties used in similar protocols. The implementation of the Secure Partial Results protocol and its evaluation constitute the core of this thesis effort. A summary of the chief elements of this thesis alongside an outlook on the future of this paradigm round off this document.
