“…An earlier version of this platform (without the resources meta-model) is described in detail in [Costa98]. The resources framework is inspired by the underlying structure of Jonathan [Dumant97]. A more complete implementation of the resources framework is also being developed in Jonathan v2.…”

Abstract. Middleware has emerged as an important architectural component in supporting distributed applications. With the expanding role of middleware, however, a number of problems are emerging. Most significantly, it is becoming difficult for a single solution to meet the requirements of a range of application domains. Hence, the paper argues that the next generation of middleware platforms should be both configurable and re-configurable. Furthermore, it is claimed that reflection offers a principled means of achieving these goals. The paper then presents an architecture for reflective middleware based on a multi-model approach. The main emphasis of the paper is on resource management within this architecture (accessible through one of the meta-models). Through a number of worked examples, we demonstrate that the approach can support introspection, and fine-and coarse-grained adaptation of the resource management framework. We also illustrate how we can achieve multi-faceted adaptation, spanning multiple meta-models.

“…The framework also supports logical name management, inspired by the JONATHAN ORB [12], which provides very flexible primitives to implement the concepts defined in the CORBA naming service [20]. This part of the framework aims to define a uniform manner to designate and interconnect the set of objects involved in the communication paths between computational nodes.…”

Abstract. We present a Java software framework for building infrastructures to support the development of applications for systems where mobility and network awareness are key issues. The framework is particularly useful to develop run-time support for languages oriented towards global computing. It enables platform designers to customize communication protocols and network architectures and guarantees transparency of name management and code mobility in distributed environments. The key features are illustrated by means of a couple of simple case studies.

“…A number of minimal platforms for flexible communications have already been implemented [10,11,15,18,20,28] where objects interact transparently through remote method invocations on well-defined interfaces. Their originality compared to CORBAlike or Java RMI-based infrastructures is to provide a core framework for building different types of middleware using the notion of flexible bindings.…”

A Software Framework for Rapid Prototyping of Run-Time Systems for Mobile Calculi

et al. 2005

Abstract. We describe the architecture and the implementation of the MIKADO software framework, that we call IMC (Implementing Mobile Calculi). The framework aims at providing the programmer with primitives to design and implement run-time systems for distributed process calculi. The paper describes the four main components of abstract machines for mobile calculi (node topology, naming and binding, communication protocols and mobility) that have been implemented as Java packages. The paper also contains the description of a prototype implementation of a run-time system for the Distributed Pi-Calculus relying on the presented framework.
