The .NET Primitives for Open, Dynamic and Reflective Component Frameworks
نویسندگان
چکیده
Composition Primitives” is a novel component model targeting .NET. The model facilitates composition across component programming frameworks via an adaptation mechanism external to the component. Constructing adapters is relatively inexpensive, because the model is minimal and focused on just one concern: offering enough information to support composition. Although small, the model supports static discovery of the services provided and consumed by a component—in other words, it is reflective. To strengthen the value of its reflection capabilities, it purposely does not rely on the Service Locator pattern and it supports n–order composition scenarios. In this paper, we present our model and support our claims.

An Approach to Building Reflective Component-based Middleware Platforms
It is now well established that middleware platforms must accommodate an increasingly diverse range of requirements which arise from the needs of both applications and underlying systems. Moreover, it is clear that to achieve this accommodation, platforms must be capable of both deployment-time configurability and run-time reconfigurability. This paper describes our approach to the design and i...
متن کاملTowards a Reflective Component-based Middleware Architecture
Current middleware is inflexible and monolithic and fails to address emerging needs for adaptation to changing requirements. As a solution, we propose that middleware be built as a reflective and component-based system. Our architecture is based on component frameworks and component framework-specific meta-interfaces and leads to extensible, composable, and dynamically flexible middleware syste...
متن کاملParleda: a Library for Parallel Processing in Computational Geometry Applications
ParLeda is a software library that provides the basic primitives needed for parallel implementation of computational geometry applications. It can also be used in implementing a parallel application that uses geometric data structures. The parallel model that we use is based on a new heterogeneous parallel model named HBSP, which is based on BSP and is introduced here. ParLeda uses two main lib...
متن کاملEnd-to-end Training of Differentiable Pipelines Across Machine Learning Frameworks
In this work we present a unified interface and methodology for performing endto-end gradient-based refinement of pipelines of differentiable machine-learning primitives. This is distinguished from recent interoperability efforts such as the Open Neural Network Exchange (ONNX) format and other language-centric crosscompilation approaches in that the final pipeline does not need to be implemente...
متن کاملStudies of Efficiency and Integrity in the OpenORB Reflective Middleware Architecture
Middleware has emerged as an important architectural component in modern distributed systems. However, it is now recognised that established middleware platforms such as CORBA, DCOM and .NET are not flexible enough to meet the needs of emerging distributed applications, featuring for example access to multimedia services and also support for mobile users. In particular, they are not sufficientl...
