Abstract. This paper addresses the distribution and the deployment of hierarchical components on heterogeneous dynamic networks. Such networks may include fixed and mobile resourc...
Hierarchical software components offer interesting characteristics for the development of complex applications. However, supporting the deployment of such applications is difficult...
A number of emerging distributed platforms include xed and robust workstations but, like dynamic and pervasive networks, are often built from mobile and resource-constrained device...
Component-based models represent a dominant trend in the construction of wide-area network applications, making possible the integration of diverse functionality contained in modu...
Software architectures are often designed with respect to some architecture patterns, like the pipeline and peer-to-peer. These patterns are the guarantee of some quality attribute...
