Building a Meta-level architecture for distributed applications
Abstract
Distributed applications are complex software systems that inherently expose concurrency and that need support for non- functional requirements such as reliability and security. We present a model that integrates application objects with a sup port architecture. An implicit concurrent meta-object protocol guarantees a clear separation between application and support system. Both are programmed with Correlate, a concurrent object-oriented language. We illustrate how a generic meta-level architecture can be customised to take application specific behaviour into account.
