An Architecture for a Mashup Container in Virtualized Environments
This paper presents the architecture and the organization of a Mashup Container that supports the deployment and the execution of Event Driven Mashups (i.e., Composite Services in which the Services interact through events rather than through the classical Call-Response paradigm) following the Platform as a Service model in the Cloud Computing paradigm. We describe the two main modules of the container, namely the Deployment Module and the Service Execution Platform, and focus our attention on the performance on of the latter. In particular we discuss the results of an evaluation test that we run in a virtualized environment (VMware based) supporting scalability and fault tolerance
A comparison between Web Service and JAVA Message Service technologies for Event Driven Mashup execution
A Platform for Smart Object Virtualization and Composition
One of the most challenging objectives of the Internet of Things (IoT) domain is the identification of interaction paradigms and communication standards to integrate smart objects (SOs), i.e., physical objects able to interact with the network. Such interaction paradigms and communication protocols belong to what can be called the IoT application layer, on which this paper focuses. This paper presents app execution platform (AEP), a platform that supports the design, deployment, execution, and management of IoT applications in the domain of smart home, smart car, and smart city. AEP was designed to coherently fulfill a set of requirements covered only partially or in a fragmented way by other IoT application platforms. AEP focuses on SO virtualization and on composite application (CA) orchestration and supports dynamic object availability
Bounded latency spanning tree reconfiguration
One of the main obstacles to the adoption of Ethernet technology in carrier-grade metropolitan and wide-area networks is the large recovery latency, in case of failure, due to spanning tree reconfiguration. In this paper we present a technique called Bounded Latency Spanning Tree Reconfiguration (BLSTR), which guarantees worst case recovery latency in the case of single faults by adopting a time-bounded bridge port reconfiguration mechanism and by eliminating the bandwidth-consuming station discovery phase that follows reconfiguration. BLSTR does not replace the Rapid and Multiple Spanning Tree reconfiguration
protocols, which remain in control of network reconfiguration, whereas it operates in parallel with them
