  Abstract

The active packets unlike traditional IP packets should be executed at each active node along their path. To execute the active program at each active node, the active packets for an active program should go through the same active nodes and all packets are delivered without any loss. This paper presents the new active engine for every active packet which execute an active program to be routed through the same intermediate active nodes and to be delivered reliably. Proposed active engine requires fewer changes to existing IP protocols and guarantees the reliable delivery of the active packets. Moreover, even if the sender does not have any information about the intermediate nodes every active packet is routed through the same intermediate active nodes. The simulation results show that proposed active engine achieves an efficient transmission with high data delivery and low communication overhead compared with the other existing transmission protocols.
