Event Monitoring Based On Web Services for Heterogeneous Event Sources
This article discusses event monitoring options for heterogeneous event sources as they are given in nowadays heterogeneous distributed information systems. It follows the central assumption, that a fully generic event monitoring solution cannot provide complete support for event monitoring; instead, event source specific semantics such as certain event types or support for certain event monitoring techniques have to be taken into account. Following from this, the core result of the work presented here is the extension of a configurable event monitoring (Web) service for a variety of event sources. A service approach allows us to trade genericity for the exploitation of source specific characteristics. It thus delivers results for the areas of SOA, Web services, CEP and EDA
Praxisfallbeispiel: Modernisierung einer Mainframe-Anwendung durch eine verteilte SOA
Auch heute noch sind Legacy-Anwendungen auf Basis von Mainframe-DBMS wie Adabas und zugehörigen Programmiersprachen wie Natural häufig produktiv. Sie sind jedoch oft nur schlecht mit neuen Unternehmensanwendungen integriert. Der vorliegende Beitrag zeigt in einem Fallbeispiel die Modernisierung einer solchen Anwendung unter Einsatz von Web Services als Basis ihrer Integration in eine verteilte, Service-orientierte Architektur (SOA)
Automated generic integration of flight logbook data into aircraft maintenance systems
The automated transfer of flight logbook information from aircrafts into aircraft maintenance systems leads to reduced ground and maintenance time and is thus desirable from an economical point of view. Until recently, flight logbooks have not been managed electronically in aircrafts or at least the data transfer from aircraft to ground maintenance system has been executed manually. Latest aircraft types such as the Airbus A380 or the Boeing 787 do support an electronic logbook and thus make an automated transfer possible. A generic flight logbook transfer system must deal with different data formats on the input side -- due to different aircraft makes and models -- as well as different, distributed aircraft maintenance systems for different airlines as aircraft operators. This article contributes the concept and top level distributed system architecture of such a generic system for automated flight log data transfer. It has been developed within a joint industry and applied research project. The architecture has already been successfully evaluated in a prototypical implementation
Shopping Cart System: Load Balancing and Fault Tolerance in the OSGi Service Platform
The main purpose of this paper was to find a simple solution for load balancing and fault tolerance in OSGi. The challenge was to implement a highly available web application such as a shopping cart system with load balancing and fault tolerance, without having to change the core of OSGi
A client/server map visualization component for an environmental information system based on WWW
Towards Sustainable Transport: A Strategic Decision Support System for Urban Logistics Operations
OSGi in Cloud Environments
This paper deals with the combination of OSGi and cloud computing. Both technologies are mainly placed in the field of distributed computing. Therefore, it is discussed how different approaches from different institutions work. In addition, the approaches are compared to each other
