Agent Server for a Location-Aware Personalized Notification Service

Goopas is a location-aware personalized information notification service coupled with automated ticket gates in railway stations. The service was provided to 40,000 users by an earlier system implemented on J2EE, but had performance problems, because location-aware systems must finish user tasks before the users move, and such personalized systems require handling a large number of users. Agent Server was used for Goopas to replace the original system. This paper describes how Agent Server was used for a real service that provides high performance and strong capabilities to 100,000 users.
