Remote Method Invocation (RMI) is available in the current Java language design and implementation, providing the much-needed capability of allowing objects running in different Java processes to collaborate using a variation on the popular Remote Procedure Call (RPC). Although RMI provides features which are desirable for high-performance distributed computing, its design and implementation ar...

BACKGROUND The discrimination between benign and malignant adnexal masses is central to decisions regarding clinical management and surgical planning in such patients. PURPOSE OF STUDY To determine if the RMI (RMI 2) can distinguish between benign and malignant adnexal masses. METHODS A prospective cohort study was conducted of 58 women with an adnexal mass referred to a teaching hospital f...

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the ability of four risk of malignancy indices (RMI) to detect malignant ovarian tumors. METHODS This is a prospective study of 100 women admitted to the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of Gulhane Military Medicine Academy for surgical exploration of pelvic masses. To diagnose malignant ovarian tumors, the sensitivity, specificity, negat...

In this paper, we present a peer-to-peer (P2P) system with remote method invocations, combining RMIX and JXTA technologies, and underpinning the H2O distributed resource sharing platform. We show that the integration of RMIX and JXTA was possible due to extensibility of the former, which allowed to plug in the JXTA-based socket implementations. The result of this integration is a fully operatio...

This article presents a review of the contemporary robotics research with respect to making robots and human-robot interaction (HRI) useful for autism intervention in clinical settings. Robotics research over the past decade has demonstrated that many children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) have a strong interest in robots and robot toys and can connect with a robot significantly better t...

Compared to centralized programming, writing applications with current distribution platforms like RMI or CORBA is quite difficult, because it requires several special considerations. For example, “normal” Java has referential semantics, objects are accessed and passed to methods through references. We would certainly like to keep these clear semantics in the case of a distributed application, ...

The transfer rate of messages in distributed sensor network applications is a critical factor in a system's performance. The Sensor Abstraction Layer (SAL) is one such system. SAL is a middleware integration platform for abstracting sensor specific technology in order to integrate heterogeneous types of sensors in a network. SAL uses Java Remote Method Invocation (RMI) as its connection method,...

We present a generalization of Java’s Remote Method Invocation model (RMI) providing an efficient group communication mechanism for parallel programming. Our Group Method Invocation model (GMI) allows methods to be invoked either on a single object or on a group of objects, the latter possibly with personalized parameters. Likewise, result values and exceptions can be returned normally (as with...

Emerging IT technologies, specially Internet communication and web-based applications are adopted to the modern distributed control systems. This paper defines a functional framework for the web-based application of a distributed control system connected by Internet. XML(eXtensible Markup Language) is used for representing a control system and control devices. These IT technologies makes a dist...
