Distributed Applications and Interoperable Systems
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th IFIP WG 6.1 International Conference on Distributed Applications and Interoperable Systems, DAIS 2005, held in Athens, Greece in June 2005. The DAIS conference was held as a joint event in federation with the 7th IFIP WG 6.1 International Conference on Formal Methods for Open Object-Based Distributed Systems, FMOODS 2005. The 16 revised full papers and 5 revised short papers presented were carefully reviewed and are organized in topical sections on context and location, interoperability architectures, methodological aspects, service discovery, configurable communication, and performance and optimization.
Aspect-Oriented, Model-Driven Software Product Lines
Software product lines provide a systematic means of managing variability in a suite of products. They have many benefits but there are three major barriers that can prevent them from reaching their full potential. First, there is the challenge of scale: a large number of variants may exist in a product line context and the number of interrelationships and dependencies can rise exponentially. Second, variations tend to be systemic by nature in that they affect the whole architecture of the software product line. Third, software product lines often serve different business contexts, each with its own intricacies and complexities. The AMPLE (http://www.ample-project.net/) approach tackles these three challenges by combining advances in aspect-oriented software development and model-driven engineering. The full suite of methods and tools that constitute this approach are discussed in detail in this edited volume and illustrated using three real-world industrial case studies.
Model Driven Architecture - Foundations and Applications
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the First European Conference, Workshops on Model Driven Architecture - Foundations and Applications, ECMDA-FA 2005, held in Nuremberg, Germany in November 2005. The 24 revised full papers presented, 9 papers from the applications track and 15 from the foundations track, were carefully reviewed and selected from 82 submissions. The latest and most relevant information on model driven software engineering in the industrial and academic spheres is provided. The papers are organized in topical sections on MDA development processes, MDA for embedded and real-time systems, MDA and component-based software engineering, metamodelling, model transformation, and model synchronization and consistency.
Global Data Management
An unforeseen growth of the volume and diversity of the data, content and knowledge is being generated all over the globe. Several factors lead to this growing complexity, among them: Size (the sheer increase in the numbers of knowledge producers and users, and in their production / use capabilities); Pervasiveness (in space and time of knowledge, knowledge producers and users); Dynamicity (new and old knowledge items will appear and disappear virtually at any moment); and Unpredictability (the future dynamics of knowledge are unknown not only at design time but also at run time). The situation is made worse by the fact that the complexity of knowledge grows exponentially with the number of ...
Trends in Network and Pervasive Computing - ARCS 2002
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the International Conference on Architecture of Computing Systems, ARCS 2002, held in Karlsruhe, Germany, in April 2002.The 18 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 42 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on context-aware systems, system aspects, networking, processor architecture, and middleware and verification.
Web Dynamics
The World Wide Web has become a ubiquitous global tool, used for finding infor mation, communicating ideas, carrying out distributed computation and conducting business, learning and science. The Web is highly dynamic in both the content and quantity of the information that it encompasses. In order to fully exploit its enormous potential as a global repository of information, we need to understand how its size, topology and content are evolv ing. This then allows the development of new techniques for locating and retrieving information that are better able to adapt and scale to its change and growth. The Web's users are highly diverse and can access the Web from a variety of devices and inte...
Distributed Communities on the Web
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the 4th International Workshop on Distributed Communities on the Web, DCW 2002, held in Sydney, Australia in April 2002.The 25 revised full papers presented together with an introductory overview and outline of the field were carefully reviewed and selected from 59 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on adaptive networks, collaborative systems, languages for the Web, and adaptive distributed systems.
Middleware 2003
The refereed proceedings of the IFIP/ACM International Conference on Distributed Systems Platforms, Middleware 2003, held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in June 2003. The 25 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 158 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on peer-to-peer computing, publish-subscribe middleware, adaptability and context-awareness, web-based middleware, and mobile and ubiquitous computing.
Modelling Event-Based Interactions in Component-Based Architectures for Quantitative System Evaluation
This dissertation thesis presents an approach enabling the modelling and quality-of-service prediction of event-based systems at the architecture-level. Applying a two-step model refinement transformation, the approach integrates platform-specific performance influences of the underlying middleware while enabling the use of different existing analytical and simulation-based prediction techniques.
