Non-Invasive Gridi cation through an Aspect-Oriented Approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a framework that allows plugging or unplugging Grid-related features to legacy code. Those features can, for example, transform sequential-like code to a parallel version or even a distributed version. With this approach scientists could develop their code as they are used to, that is, they could spent their time programming as they are used to instead of learning new programming paradigms. The framework relies on aspect-oriented programming (AOP) techniques to perform non-invasive enhancements to scienti c applications to cope with grid speci c issues, such as remote execution, load distribution, fault tolerance and monitoring. In addition, framework components are glued together with AOP, thus it is possible to plug (only) features required for each speci c application / target platform.

A hybrid DEA-based K-means and invasive weed optimization for facility location problem
In this paper, instead of the classical approach to the multi-criteria location selection problem, a new approach was presented based on selecting a portfolio of locations. First, the indices affecting the selection of maintenance stations were collected. The K-means model was used for clustering the maintenance stations. The optimal number of clusters was calculated through the Silhou...
متن کاملInvasive Composition By Transformation Systems
The most important strategy to deal with complex systems in computer science is the divide and conquer design paradigm. It works by recursively breaking down a problem into sub-problems until they become simple enough to be solved directly. The solutions to the sub-problems are then composed to give a solution for the whole problem. There are two kinds of composition: non-invasive and invasive ...
متن کاملAspects + GAMMA = AspectGAMMA A Formal Framework for Aspect-Oriented Speci cation
This paper describes an extension to the GAMMA formalism, which we name AspectGAMMA, and we show how non-computational aspects can be expressed separately from the computation in this framework. Examples of such aspects include real-time constraints, location/distribution aspects, behavioral requirement aspects, fault-tolerance aspects, power requirement aspects, and many others. The idea is to...
متن کاملSome Thoughts On Refactoring Objects to Aspects
The prospect of aspect-orientation receiving widespread acceptance and adoption in the near future begs the question of how to deal with a large base of object-oriented legacy code. We propose to investigate refactoring techniques for restructuring object-oriented source code so that it can leverage the mechanisms of aspect-orientation in order to become easier to adapt, extend and evolve. Our ...
متن کاملMaking aspect-orientation accessible through syntax-based language composition
A generic syntax-based approach is presented by which a fixed set of aspect-oriented features belonging to an aspect language family LA can be applied to a DSL. The approach centers on the construction of a grammar in which a predefined and fixed set of abstract join points and join point environments are linked with their concrete counterparts within the DSL. This connection enables the behavi...
