Abstract

This paper presents, a new agent model "specially" designed for the new Android Google SDK, where the Android mobile phone can be considered as a software agent. This agent model has an approach more practical than theoretical because it uses abstractions which makes possible its implementation on differents systems. The appearance of Android as an open system based on Linux has created new expectations for agent implementation. Agents may run in different hardware platforms, one approach useful in Ubiquitous Computing to achieve intelligent agents embedded in the environment. This vision can be considered a real intelligent ambient.
