Paper Abstract:
|
When compared to local applications, aspects such as data transfer, transaction handling, and change notification add an additional level of complexity when developing collaborative distributed applications. Middleware layers strive to reduce this complexity, but without the right application programming interface, most of the complexity is only relocated instead of being removed. ATTRIBUTES &CO, a language binding for space-based middleware layers, accomplishes to reduce the complexity of distributed software development by employing the declarative mechanisms provided by modern object-oriented languages. Using the paradigm of declarative programming for describing the properties of distribution, ATTRIBUTES &CO helps to improve the development process, raising code quality and reducing development time. |
