Off-the-shelf ready to go middleware for self-reconfiguring and self-optimizing ubiquitous computing applications

iPOJO-based Middleware Solutions for Self-Reconfiguration and Self-Optimization

“…First experiences with OTS-RTG have considered component-oriented systems, in particular Enterprise Java Beans-based architectures. The results obtained clearly showed that our model can provide those architectures with the needed reconfiguration features in a seamless and effective way (the interested reader could refer to [17] for additional and more extensive details, including several quantitative experimental results about performance evaluation). More recent experiences with OTS-RTG have addressed even more challenging and articulated deployment scenarios, of relevant industrial interest, such as ESB architectures.…”

“…By means of high-level control rules, developers can easily exploit the facilities of the reconfiguration layer to act on the autonomic system by reconfiguring it (in proper and given states). The interested reader could refer to [17] for more details on XML control rules. Our MonitorHandler, as depicted in Fig.…”

A self-aware, reconfigurable architecture for context awareness

“…Moreover, the iPOJO container is easily extensible and allows pluggable handlers, typically for the management of non-functional aspects. Each module deployed in the three layers is actually an iPOJO component able to meet the requirements mentioned in Section 2 [4].…”

Collective awareness and action in urban superorganisms

“…It is up to the self-optimizing and reconfiguring module to enable applications to selfreconfigure and thus deal with the re-configurability challenge, given applications specific strategies. In order to realize a reconfigurable application structure, the software model that best fulfills this requirement is the service-oriented component one (SoC) [Bel11].…”
