Middleware and Application Adaptation Requirements and Their Support in Pervasive Computing
نویسندگان
چکیده
Pervasive computing environments are characterized by an additional heterogeneity compared to existing computing infrastructures. Devices ranging from small embedded systems to full-fledged computers are connected via spontaneously formed networks. In this paper we analyze requirements of applications and system software to cope with the dynamically changing execution environment. Based on our micro-broker-based middleware BASE a component framework for pervasive computing supporting application adaptation is proposed.

A semantic-aware role-based access control model for pervasive computing environments
Access control in open and dynamic Pervasive Computing Environments (PCEs) is a very complex mechanism and encompasses various new requirements. In fact, in such environments, context information should be used in access control decision process; however, it is not applicable to gather all context information completely and accurately all the time. Thus, a suitable access control model for PCEs...
متن کاملExperience using Processes for Pervasive Applications
Pervasive Computing envisions seamless computing support for users while performing their everyday tasks. Many of these tasks are hard to capture by the notion of a single application as their requirements on computing support vary over time. To ease the development of applications for such tasks, we have designed an application model for process-oriented pervasive applications, called Sentient...
متن کاملSystem Support for Proactive Adaptation
Applications in our modern, pervasive computing environments have to adapt themselves or their context in order to cope with changes. In the process, these pervasive applications should be as unobtrusive as possible, i.e., their adaptation should be automatic. In dynamic multi-user systems with shared resources and interactive applications, such adaptations cannot be scripted in advance. Instea...
متن کاملAspect-Oriented Reconfigurable Middleware for Pervasive Systems
One of the main features of pervasive computing systems is their need to be dynamically reconfigured in order to properly adapt to the continuous changes in their environment conditions (context). An appropriate solution to provide reconfigurability is Aspect-Oriented Software Development, which allows that optional functionalities can be enabled/disabled and services can be replaced with light...
متن کاملSemantic-based Middleware Solutions to Support Context-Aware Service Provisioning in Pervasive Environments
The dynamicity and heterogeneity that characterize pervasive environments raise new challenges in the design of mobile middleware. Pervasive environments are characterized by a significant degree of heterogeneity, variability, and dynamicity that conventional middleware solutions are not able to adequately manage. Originally designed for use in a relatively static context, such middleware syste...
