Abstract：An online auction architecture based on active network is proposed to remedy the drawback of the auction system based on traditional client/server(C/S) architecture. A filter is built in active network node for filtering low competitive prices to improve the performance of the auction server. It can balance dynamically load in the situation of heavy load. To reduce network delay, server announces the latest competitive price to active network node by active network packets. The experimental results show that this architecture could not only solve the drawback of the auction system based on traditional network architecture, but also improve its performance.
