A graphical specification environnement for GCM component-based applications
نویسندگان
چکیده
According to the paradigm of component-based software engineering a software system can be represented as a set of independent reusable modules which communicate with each other.The OASIS team is working on a Grid Component Model (GCM) which defines how a distributed component-based application should be designed, deployed and developed. This work is focused on the modeling aspect of GCM-based applications. First, we define a formal model for the GCM-based applications architecture. Second, we provide a formalized set of consistency constraints for the GCM-based architecture validation. The created set consists of the validation rules gathered from different sources. Finally, we implement a graphical editor for the GCM-based applications architecture and behavior specifications. It has an architecture validation module which allows to verify the formalized set of constraints.

An Environmfnt for Computer-based Animation
12-1 This paper describes an environment for the production of computer-based animation. The emphasis in development of this environment has been in the production of a habitable environment for a visually sophisticated but perhaps, computer naive animator. The attempt has been to create for the animator/user an environment which allows for flexible and natural ways for not only interaction wit...

This document describes a Grid component model (called GCM). It defines the main features to be included in the GCM, as currently assessed in the Programming Model Institute. By defining the GCM, the Institute aims at the precise specification of an effective GCM. Fractal has been chosen by the CoreGrid community as the basis for the definitions of the GCM: The GCM features is roughly defined a...
متن کاملExtension of the Fractal ADL for the Specification of Behaviours of Distributed Components
Inheriting from a long experience about modules, objects and interfaces, component programming has emerged as a programming methodology ensuring both re-usability and composability. Among the components models, Fractal [6] provides hierarchical composition for a better structure, and specification of control interfaces for dynamic management. Fractal defines a highly extensible component model ...
متن کاملNITELIGHT: A Graphical Editor for SPARQL Queries
Query formulation is a key aspect of information retrieval, contributing to both the efficiency and usability of many semantic applications. A number of query languages, such as SPARQL, have been developed for the Semantic Web; however, there are, as yet, few tools to support end users with respect to the creation and editing of semantic queries. In this paper we present NITELIGHT, a graphical ...
متن کاملA Flexible Model and Implementation of Component Controllers
The GCM (Grid Component Model) is a component model that is being defined by the CoreGRID institute on Programming Models; it is based on the Fractal component model. It is intended at overcoming the insufficiencies of the existing component systems when it comes to Grid computing. Its main characteristics are: hierarchical composition, structured communications with support for asynchrony, sup...
