Middleware for Building Adaptive Systems Via Configuration
Overview COTS (Commercial Off-The-Shelf) devices are capable of executing powerful, distributed algorithms. Very large, adaptive systems can be created by simply integrating these devices, not by creating new devices, algorithms or external control systems. The principal integration method is configuration: every device is designed to have a finite set of configuration parameters that can be set to definite values. It is inherently difficult to develop the science because of the large conceptual gap between global, end-to-end requirements and device configurations. A middleware is needed to bridge this gap in the form of specification, reasoning, compilation and diagnostic tools. This paper sketches a technique called Service Grammar for developing such middleware for a given domain.
