In this paper we propose light-weight-agent as an efficient and effective tool for implementing data communication network bandwidth optimization and response time. The routing model for the agents is based on TSP algorithms. Performance comparison was carried out among RPC, Single Mobile Agent and tiny agents otherwise referred to as lightweight agents on the basis of bandwidth usage and response time. The performance evaluation shows the superiority of lightweight agents over the other schemes in terms of bandwidth usage and the response time.
