Heterogeneous Adaptive Component-Based Applications with Adaptive.Net

Adaptation to changing environmental conditions is a major challenge for most distributed applications. The service-oriented programming paradigm leads to an increasing number of applications that are not only meant to provide services through standard user-interfaces hosted on desktop computers, but are to be accessible from small mobile devices as well. The integration of the different programming environments on desktop (i.e.; Windows) and mobile computers (i.e.; Java Micro Editions - J2ME) puts an extra burden on the programmer of this kind of applications. In addition, unstable conditions caused by modern infrastructures for mobile applications and varying properties of computational devices have to be considered during runtime of the application. Dynamic reconfiguration provides a powerful mechanism for adaptive computing. Within this paper, we elaborate on the extension of our previously developed Adaptive.Net framework towards CORBA and Java. With the introduction of new conn...
