As the desire for business intelligence capabilities for e-business processes expands, existing workflow management systems and decision support systems are not able to provide co...
This paper aims at demonstrating the benefits and importance of the service concept in the model-driven design of distributed applications. A service defines the observable behavi...
Distributed System design is a highly complicated and non-trivial task. The problem is characterised by the need to design multi-threaded, multi-processor, and multimedia systems....
Distributed systems are inherently complex, and therefore difficult to design and develop. Experience shows that new technologies—such as components, aspects, and application f...
The Meta-Object Facility (MOF) provides a standardised framework for object-oriented models. An instance of a MOF model contains objects and links whose interfaces are entirely de...
