A Connector-Aware Middleware for Distributed Deployment and Mobility

To address the need for highly configurable and customizable distributed systems, researchers and practitioners are investigating various innovative approaches. One of the promising techniques emerging from this area of study is mobile computing. In this paper we present an architecture-based approach to supporting distributed deployment and mobility of software systems. We exploit a connectoraware architectural middleware in providing these capabilities. The approach has been successfully tested on several applications for networks of small, mobile, resource constrained devices (e.g., hand-held computers).
