HighFrame

Abstract

The development of distributed systems has become a complex task. An approach that has become widely accepted in this context is the component-based development. However, the effort aimed at developing technical code for component models and remote communications is yet a discouraging obstacle. In this paper we present HighFrame, a framework that provides to developers a high level development solution for component-based distributed systems. The framework is designed to provide automatic generation of components based on code annotations and a graphical planner. This proposal abstracts from developer the complexity of component models, methods of distributed communication and interoperability among different models.
