Overview

JavaPorts consists of a set of abstractions, an Application Programming interface (API) and tools for the rapid prototyping of modular, component-based distributed applications for clusters of heterogeneous networked resources.

The JavaPorts project aims at providing the distributed application developer:

• The capability to easily create reusable software components for the concurrent tasks of a distributed application
• The ability to build a distributed application from a mixture of Java and Matlab components
• An API for anonymous message passing among tasks, hiding the details of the communication and coordination
• Tools that make it easy to define and restructure distributed processing applications consisting of several components
• A Tool to easily capture the behavior of each application component in order to perform what-if performance investigations
• A system to automate the mapping of application tasks onto machines in a way that meets user defined QoS demands at startup-time
• A QoS API and middleware to enable application-driven self-adaptation for performance and fault tolerance purposes at runtime
