Book Description
Mastering interoperability in a computing environment consisting of different operating systems and hardware architectures is a key requirement which faces system engineers building distributed information systems. Distributed applications are a necessity in most central application sectors of the contemporary computerized society, for instance, in office automation, banking, manufacturing, telecommunication and transportation. This book focuses on the techniques available or under development, with the goal of easing the burden of constructing reliable and maintainable interoperable information systems. The topics covered in this book include: Management of distributed systems; Frameworks and construction tools; Open architectures and interoperability techniques; Experience with platforms like CORBA and RMI; Language interoperability (e.g. Java); Agents and mobility; Quality of service and fault tolerance; Workflow and object modelling issues; and Electronic commerce . The book contains the proceedings of the International Working Conference on Distributed Applications and Interoperable Systems II (DAIS'99), which was held June 28-July 1, 1999 in Helsinki, Finland. It was sponsored by the International Federation of Information Processing (IFIP). The conference program presents the state of the art in research concerning distributed and interoperable systems. This is a topical research area where much activity is currently in progress. Interesting new aspects and innovative contributions are still arising regularly. The DAIS series of conferences is one of the main international forums where these important findings are reported.

Component Deployment
Author: Judith BishopPublisher: Springer
ISBN: 3540454403
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 280
Book Description
Deployment is the act of taking components and readying them for productive use. There may be steps following deployment, such as installation or m- agement related functions, but all decisions about how to con?gure and c- pose/assemble a component are made at the deployment stage. This is therefore the one opportunity in the software lifecycle to bridge the gap between what the component developer couldn’t know about the deployment environment and what the environment’s developer couldn’t know about the open set of depl- able components. It is not surprising that deployment as a dedicated step gains importance when addressing issues of system-wide qualities, such as coping with constrained resources or preparing for component adaptation and system evolution. Yet, component deployment is still a discipline in its infancy: it became mainstream practice only in the mid 1990s. Much of the best practice impulse originated in products like Microsoft’s Transaction Server and its approach to attribute-based programming and later products like Enterprise JavaBeans and now the Corba Component Model. All these address the speci?c needs of enterprise appli- tion servers. However, the potential of the deployment concept goes far beyond this. Deployment can and should touch e?ectively all truly component-based solutions. The proceedings of Component Deployment 2002 represent a good cro- section of the gamut of deployment issues. From customization to address - source constraints to recon?guration of deployed systems and from architecture to design to languages, the avid reader will ?nd some contribution.

Reconfiguration and Life-cycle Distributed Components

Book Description
En programmation orientée à composants, mais particulièrement dans des environnements distribués, les composants ont besoin d'être adaptatifs. Une majeure partie de cette adaptation repose sur la reconfiguration dynamique. Dans cette thèse, nous introduisons une nouvelle approche pour la reconfiguration des modèles de composants distribués, avec l'objectif de faciliter le processus de reconfiguration et d'assurer la consistance et la cohérence du système. Avant d'exécuter une reconfiguration, il est nécessaire que les composants soient dans un état cohérent et stable, afin d'éviter des incohérences dans le processus de reconfiguration. Pour ceci, nous concevons un algorithme pour l'arrêt d'un composant d'une manière sécurisée et atteignant un état stable. Cela a été réalisé en mettant en œuvre un mécanisme de marquage et d'interception qui permet d'ajouter des informations aux requêtes et de manipuler leurs flux, afin de décider lesquelles doivent être servies avant d'arrêter le composant. Nous avons conçu un ensemble de primitives de reconfiguration de haut niveau qui permettent de réaliser des opérations de reconfiguration plus complexes. Nous fournissons un contrôleur supplémentaire à notre modèle de composant qui implémente ces primitives. Pour le déclenchement des tâches de reconfiguration, nous avons étendu le langage FScript pour lui permettre d'exécuter des reconfigurations distribuées, en déléguant certaines actions à des composants. Pour ceci, nous avons défini un contrôleur additionnel à l'intérieur de la membrane des composants. Nous avons testé notre approche sur deux applications basées sur GCM/ProActive : CoCoME et TurnTable.
