چکیده
While the Ada community has seen and embraced the development of Ada 95 1], with its enhanced object oriented features and various annexes, much of the rest of the commercial world continues to ignore Ada as a viable tool for software system building. EEorts have been ongoing for some time to provide rationale showing the superiority of Ada 95 over other choices such as C and C++, but with limited success in the commercial marketplace. In this paper, we put forward the idea that the Ada community should focus on: 1) interoperability with components built in other languages, and 2) convenient , easy to use toolsets for composing distributed systems from heterogeneous language components.

متن کاملUnderstanding application-level interoperability: Scaling-out MapReduce over high-performance grids and clouds
Application-level interoperability is defined as the ability of an application to utilize multiple distributed heterogeneous resources. Such interoperability is becoming increasingly important with increasing volumes of data, multiple sources of data as well as resource types. The primary aim of this paper is to understand different ways and levels in which application-level interoperability ca...
متن کاملA Language for Specifying the Composition of Reliable Distributed Applications
This paper describes the design of a scripting language aimed at expressing task (unit of computation) composition and inter-task dependencies of distributed applications whose execution could span arbitrary large durations. This work is motivated by the observation that an increasingly large number of distributed applications are constructed by composing them out of existing applications, and ...

Few work has been done in the past which has dealt with programming for loosely coupled distributed systems [2]. However, distributed execution is becoming increasingly important for realtime systems, since most of them are implemented with distributed processors.

متن کاملLanguage-based support for service oriented architectures: Future directions
The popularity of service-oriented architectures (SOA) lives on the promise of dynamic IT-supported interbusiness collaborations. Yet the programming models in use today are a poor match for the distributed, looselycoupled, document-based SOA; and the gap widens: interoperability across organizations needs contracts to reduce risks. Thus, high-level contract models are making their way into SOA...
