Description:

A state-of-the-art guide to middleware technologies, and their pivotal role in communications networks.

Middleware is about integration and interoperability of applications and services running on heterogeneous computing and communications devices. The services it provides - including identification, authentication, authorization, soft-switching, certification and security - are used in a vast range of global appliances and systems, from smart cards and wireless devices to mobile services and e-Commerce.

Qusay H. Mahmoud has created an invaluable reference tool that explores the origins and current uses of middleware (highlighting the importance of such technologies as CORBA, J2EE and JMS) and has thus compiled the roadmap to future research in this area.

Middleware for Communications:

  • discusses the emerging fields of Peer-to-Peer (P2P) and grid middleware detailing middleware platforms such as JXTA and the Globus middleware toolkit. -
  • shows how Middleware will play a significant role in mobile computing.
  • presents a Platform Supporting Mobile Applications (PLASMA) - a middleware platform that consists of components for location, event, and profile handling of Location-Based Services.
  • introduces middleware security focusing on the appropriate aspects of CORBA, J2EE, and .NET and demonstrates how to realize complex security capabilities such as role-based access control (RBAC) and mandatory access control (MAC).
  • discusses how Quality of Service (QoS) component middleware can be combined with Model Driven Architecture (MDA) technologies to rapidly develop, generate, assemble and deploy flexible communications applications.

This incomparable overview of middleware for communications is suitable for graduate students and researchers in communications and computing departments. It is also an authoritative guide for engineers and developers working on distributed systems, mobile computing and networked appliances.

描述:
這是一本關於中介軟體技術的最先進指南,探討其在通訊網路中的關鍵角色。

中介軟體涉及在異質計算和通訊設備上運行的應用程式和服務的整合與互操作性。它提供的服務,包括身份識別、認證、授權、軟切換、認證和安全性,廣泛應用於從智慧卡和無線設備到移動服務和電子商務的各種全球設備和系統。

Qusay H. Mahmoud 創建了一個寶貴的參考工具,探討中介軟體的起源和當前用途(強調了 CORBA、J2EE 和 JMS 等技術的重要性),並因此編制了未來在該領域研究的路線圖。

《通訊中介軟體》:
- 討論了新興的點對點(P2P)和網格中介軟體領域,詳細介紹了 JXTA 和 Globus 中介軟體工具包等中介軟體平台。
- 展示了中介軟體在移動計算中的重要角色。
- 提出了一個支持移動應用程式的平台(PLASMA)——這是一個由位置、事件和基於位置的服務的配置文件處理組件組成的中介軟體平台。
- 介紹了中介軟體安全性,重點關注 CORBA、J2EE 和 .NET 的相關方面,並展示如何實現複雜的安全功能,如基於角色的訪問控制(RBAC)和強制訪問控制(MAC)。
- 討論了如何將服務質量(QoS)組件中介軟體與模型驅動架構(MDA)技術結合,以快速開發、生成、組裝和部署靈活的通訊應用程式。

這本無與倫比的通訊中介軟體概述適合研究生和通訊及計算系的研究人員。它也是工程師和開發人員在分散式系統、移動計算和網路設備方面工作的權威指南。
