Supporting object oriented languages on the Comandos platform
(Commission of the European, 1991)The Comandos project 3 is designing and implementing a platform to support distributed persistent applications. In particular the platform supports the object oriented style of programming. An essential requirement of the ... -
Towards generic support for distributed information systems
(IEEE, 1991)We are concerned with providing support for a range of object oriented programming langauges to be used in multi-user, multi-machine, heterogeneous environments requiring associative access, as well as concurrency and ... -
A Logic Based Implementation of Head-Driven Phrase Structure Grammar
(Elsevier, 1991)Head-Driven Phrase Structure Grammar (HPSG), a unification-based formal language for describing linguistic phenomena, has a declarative semantics which makes it amenable to specification as a logic program. The HPSG ... -
On object orientation as a paradigm for general purpose distributed operating systems.
(ACM/IRISA/INRIA, 1992)In the Amadeus project we have been considering the construction of a general purpose distributed support environment for object oriented programming. In this paper we tackle a number of key areas whose interaction must ... -
Implementing atomic objects with the RelaX transaction facility.
(1992)RelaX offers an extensible transaction facility which isolates distributed (thus complex) transaction processing. A distributed system providing basic support for local recovery may easily be enhanced with flexible transaction ... -
Sharing objects in a distributed system.
(IEEE Computer Society Press, 1993)This paper presents a design for the use of DSM techniques and system-supported synchronisation to support shared access to persistent objects in a distributed environment. We adopt a hybrid approach where the system ... -
EuroBridge methodology for telecommunications service specification
(IEEE, 1993)In designing and specifying a system that will be used to provide telecommunications services to a user population, it is important to identify all major actors involved, and their individual concerns at an early ... -
Eiffel**: An implementation of Effel
(Prentice Hall, 1993)Eiffel is an implementation of Eiffel which provides support for distribution, persistence, concurrency and transactions. All objects in an Eiffel system are global (i.e. accessible from nodes other than that at which they ... -
Architecture for Integrated Telecommunication Management Platforms
(1993)Telecommunication management network (TMN) systems represent diverse telecommunication domains with wideranging functionality which frequently employ different technologies and produce isolated solutions. Yet ... -
Extensible systems - the Tigger approach.
(ACM, 1994)The Tigger project is developing a framework for the construction of a family of distributed objectsupport platforms suitable for use in a variety of distributed applications ranging from embedded soft-real time systems ... -
Security considerations in a network management environment
(IEEE, 1994)Considers the security aspects of communication between two management processes operating in different management domains; identifies two major risks: the security of information exchanged during the management association, ... -
Psychological Evidence for Assumptions of Path-Based Inheritance Reasoning
(1994)The psychological validity of inheritance reasoners is clarified. Elio and Pelletier (1993) presented the first pilot experiment exploring some of these issues. We investigate other foundational assumptions of inheritance ... -
An event based object model for distributed programming
(Springer-Verlag, 1995)This paper describes the rationale and design of a new distributed systems programming model based on events, constraints, and objects 1 . The paper describes the inter-object communication or invocation mechanism, and the ... -
Issues in Internetworking Wireless Data Networks for Mobile Computing
(IEEE, 1995)There are many issues specijk to the area of mobile computing which need to be addressed This paper will discuss the particular issues of mobile hosts, network management and security.
