The design, development and maintenance of multi-component software systems often suffer from the lack of suitable coordination abstractions. The aim of this paper is to show the benefits of coordination models based on global communication abstractions whose behaviour is not fixed, but is extensible so as to accomplish the intended behaviour of the whole system. Accordingly, we propose the notion...
In today's data-intensive world, the need for data organization has increased dramatically. Distributed systems are dealing with unheard amounts of data arising primarily from the popularization of pervasive computing applications and the so-called “data-in-the-cloud” paradigm. Naturally, agent-coordination systems are affected by this data-increase phenomenon as they are often used as the basis for...
A key feature for infrastructures providing coordination services is the ability to define the behaviour of coordination abstractions according to the requirements identified at design-time. We take as a representative for this scenario the logic-based language ReSpecT (Reaction Specification Tuples), used to program the reactive behaviour of tuple centres. ReSpecT specifications are at the core of...
