Open Pluggable Edge Services: An Architecture for Networked Content Services

Open Pluggable Edge Services

The Open Pluggable Edge Services (OPES) framework is application agnostic. Application specific adaptations extend that framework. Previous work has focused on HTTP and work for SMTP is in progress. These protocols differ fundamentally in the way data flows and it turns out that existing OPES requirements and IAB considerations for OPES need to be reviewed with regards to how well they fit for ...

Pluggable Services for Tailorable E-content Delivery

Delivering e-content as a service to end users involves addressing various cross-cutting aspects, including the heterogeneity of source and data, user needs, business rules as well as the evolution of the content itself. Catering for these aspects when modeling information systems calls for an architecture that accommodates evolution through separation of concerns and tailorability, and provide...

An Architecture for Trustworthy Open Data Services

This paper addresses the development of trust in the use of Open Data through incorporation of appropriate authentication and integrity parameters for use by end user Open Data application developers in an architecture for trustworthy Open Data Services.The advantages of this architecture scheme is that it is far more scalable, not another certificate authority hierarchy with massive dispersion...

The NODS Project: Networked Open Database Services

An Open-source Web Architecture for Adaptive Location-based Services

As the volume of information available online continues to grow, there is an increasing problem with information overload. This issue is also escalating in the spatial domain as the amount of geo-tagged information expands. With such an abundance of geo-information, it is difficult for map users to find content that is relevant to them. The problem is intensified when considering Location-Based...
