Abstract:Standard middleware platforms are unable to cope with extreme heterogeneity and dynamicity of distributed systems. With new trends in mobile/pervasive applications, distributed systems are required to connect to one another at run time, implying that heterogeneities arising in systems need to be resolved on the fly. This ability of a system to interact with a different system is known as interoperability. More advanced solutions, which exceed the state-of-the-art in middleware, are required to handle interoper… Show more
