We study the Black Hole search problem using mobile agents in three interconnected network topologies: hypercube, torus and complete network. We do so without relying on local storage. Instead we use a less-demanding and less-expensive
token
mechanism. We demonstrate that the Black Hole can be located with a minimum of two (2)
co-located
agents performing Θ(
n
) moves with
O
(1) tokens, in each of these three topologies. Then we study the Black Hole search problem with
scattered
agents. We show that the optimal number of moves can be achieved with the optimal number of mobile agents using
O
(1) tokens.
