@Deprecated
public class AgentIdentifier
extends Object
implements Identifier

Unique identifier of an agent.

The agent identifier must be unique along all the kernel which are accessible by this agent.

This identifier is composed of two parts:

• the kernel's identifier
where the agent was spawn for the first time; if the agent has migrated, this part does not reflect the kernel where the agent is currently run.
• a unique identifier (see UUID)
