“…In addition, we are collaborating with researchers identifying similar attributes to assess architectures for quality of service (QoS) parameters. One such QoS extension that is being incorporated in our tool is that on voluminous data intensive interactions [13]. It is important to note that these attributes must be periodically updated based on prevailing COTS characteristics.…”

“…Moreover, the amount of information exchanged in a distributed system can deeply influence the design of connector [Mattmann, 2007]. For example, P2P protocols are always chosen as communication mechanism of some connectors to deal with large scale data.…”

Today, software architecture has received a lot of attention in software development process. In terms of architecture, component and connector are two key concepts to understand logical organization of software. Within the organization, components are required to be connected and configured into a system with exchanging data. In order to satisfy the requirements of connection, connectors provide components with mechanisms for communication, coordination, or cooperation among them. Particularly, in distributed systems, connectors play an important role in software architecture.However, in software development process, engineers often face more challenges of building connectors with high quality and full functionality, because of different level of understanding for connectors and lack of design models, as well as few approaches of maintenance.Some existing approaches are proposed to solve the connector problems. For example, Aspect-Oriented Programming is used to build connectors based on relationship of components; according to transmission of information between components, middleware solution is adopted to develop connectors.

“…Based on a recent survey of data distribution experts [3], personalization approaches fall prey to the problem of organizational change -when domain experts leave an organization, they take their knowledge with them. In addition, because codification approaches (like DISCO) produce knowledge artifacts, such artifacts can be used as a shared means of recording key design decisions similar to the work of Capilla et al [10].…”

“…In addition, DISCO allows an architect to record observations about the performance of particular connectors in a given distribution scenario. We have currently developed three connector selection algorithms (the description of which is beyond the scope of this paper -see [3] for a complete description) that leverage our connector knowledge to pair connectors to distribution scenarios: Bayesian, Scored-based, and Optimizing [4]. Below we discuss how observation and insight are captured and used in greater detail.…”

“…There are many connectors that claim to handle varying levels of service for large-scale data movement, e.g., connectors such as bbFTP, GridFTP, Bittorrent, FTP, SCP, JXTA, RMI, XML-RPC, and so on [3]. Though many of these technologies purport to offer similar capabilities, the danger in simply selecting one of them and integrating it into a dissemination system is that the implications of this decision are not well understood.…”

Ever-growing amounts of data that must be distributed from data providers to consumers across the world necessitate a greater understanding of the software architectural implications of choosing data movement technologies. Currently, this understanding is mired in the minds of software architects who have "been there before," and who rely on past intuition and choices, failing to properly document their rationale and context. In this paper we describe a software architecture-based decision making framework called DISCO for selecting data movement technologies, or software connectors. DISCO effectively captures (traditionally undocumented) insight, observation and ultimately architectural knowledge about the connectors, demonstrating the effectiveness of using such information to accurately encode the connector selection decision making process.
