Next Generation Software: ERF: An Event-Rule Framework for Supporting Heterogeneous Distributed Systems

javier Arroyo-FigueroaUniversity of Puerto rico - mayaguez下一代软件：ERF：支持异构分布式系统的事件规则框架本提案提出了一个研究和开发事件规则框架（ERF）的计划，该框架由一组支持异构分布式系统（HDS）开发的服务和工具组成。本研究旨在研究设计方案、算法、应用和实现问题，以实现以下目标：1)一个高层次的面向对象规范模型；2)支持多种标准3)事件和规则作为HDS行为规范的范例4)基于规则的智能事件服务（RUBIES），提供规则定义、事件通知（发布）注册和规则管理的方法；5)集成开发环境（IDE），其中包含用于指定HDS的结构和行为以及运行时监控和维护的工具。

EIA-9974979Javier Arroyo-FigueroaUniversity of Puerto Rico-MayaguezNext Generation Software: ERF: An Event-Rule Framework for Supporting Heterogeneous Distributed Systems This proposal presents a plan for research and development of an Event-Rule framework (ERF) which comprises of a set of services and tools for supporting the development of heterogeneous distributed systems (HDS). The proposed research aims to study design alternatives, algorithms, applications, and implementation issues to accomplish the following objectives: 1) a high-level object-oriented specification model; 2) support for multiple standards 3) events and rules used as paradigm for specification f behavior of a HDS 4) a Rule-Based Intelligent Event Service (RUBIES) which provides methods for rule definition, event notification (posting) registration and rule management; and 5) an integrated development environment (IDE) with tools for specifying the structure and behavior, and for the run-time monitoring and maintenance of an HDS.
