Panda: Middleware to Provide the Benefits of Active Networks to Legacy Applications
نویسندگان
چکیده
Panda is middleware designed to bring the benefits of active networks to applications not written with active networks in mind. This paper describes the architecture and implementation of Panda, and provides data on the overheads incurred and performance benefits achieved. The paper also discusses some of the key issues of automatically and transparently intercepting data streams and converting them into active streams, including interception mechanisms, automated planning facilities, and allowing user and application control of the middleware.

Proposal Title: A Middleware Framework for Supporting Application Use of Active Networks
Active networks allow rapid adaptation to difficult and changing network conditions. However, many programs will not be prepared to interact directly with the active network, either because they are legacy code, because the programmer did not have sufficient understanding of how to handle QoS problems through active network mechanisms, or because the programmer was unable to foresee all possibl...
متن کاملA Review on Energy Storage Systems Planning in Active Distribution Networks and its Applications
With the restructuring of power systems, increase of renewable energy sources, and as networks become smarter, power systems are facing new challenges such as uncertainty in available energy resources. An appropriate solution to address these challenges are to use energy storage systems. Therefore, sizing, location, and selection of energy storage systems are important to maximize their benefit...
متن کاملAn Adaptive Congestion Alleviating Protocol for Healthcare Applications in Wireless Body Sensor Networks: Learning Automata Approach
Wireless Body Sensor Networks (WBSNs) involve a convergence of biosensors, wireless communication and networks technologies. WBSN enables real-time healthcare services to users. Wireless sensors can be used to monitor patients’ physical conditions and transfer real time vital signs to the emergency center or individual doctors. Wireless networks are subject to more packet loss and congestion. T...
