An Experimental Evaluation of a Component-based Distributed Application
Abstract: "Large scale distributed applications can grow exponentially in complexity with the size of the problem-domain being modeled and the number of subsystems required. Distributed object technology has emerged as an effective means of dealing with this problem by allowing the construction and deployment of reusable software components. However, the associated problems that need to be addressed in developing component-based systems are: Component Integration and Legacy application integration. Component Integration deals with the distributed object-based infra-structural support required, to enable communication and coordination among individual and related groups of components. Legacy application integration, on the other hand deals with issues of being able to provide distributed access to the control over legacy software. The above two issues were studied in the context of the OWL (Object-Oriented Workplace Laboratory) Project. The OWL Project is currently being undertaken in a joint effort by the School of Computer Science and the Department of Architecture at Carnegie Mellon University. The primary goal of OWL is to design and implement a Facilities Management system for the Intelligent Workplace. The Intelligent Workplace project is an internationally unique venue for studying how workplace design can maximize occupant comfort, well being, and productivity. The specific contributions of this study are: An object-oriented design of a peer-to-peer software architecture for a facility management system, A design solution for interfacing legacy systems from the lighting control industry. Object Adapters were built using Java Native Methods and CORBA (Common Object Request Broker Architecture) for the Zumtobel/Lighting Control System. A Performance Analysis of alternative component integration technologies. The study uses the OWL system as a basis to carry out performance measures for Java/RMI (Remote Method Invocation) and CORBA as alternative strategies to achieve component integration over an Object Bus. Performance analysis was also done comparing CORBA and JNI as alternate approaches to integrate legacy applications."
