Reconfiguration Mechanisms for Service Coordination

摘要

Models for exogenous coordination provide powerful gluecode, in the form of software connectors, to express interaction protocols between services in distributed applications. Connector reconfiguration mechanisms play, in this setting, a major role to deal with change and adaptation of interaction protocols. This paper introduces a model for connector reconfiguration, based on a collection of primitives as well as a language to specify connectors and their reconfigurations.
