A Co-operative Object-Oriented Architecture for Adaptive Systems
Hits: 488
Description: Adaptive systems should be able to adapt to changes that occur in their operating environment without any external human intervention. Software architectures for such systems should be flexible enough to allow components to change their pattern of collaboration depending on the environmental changes and goals of the system. A drawback for using object-oriented models for describing software architectures for adaptive systems is their lack of effective means to represent collaborative behaviour between objects, if we consider that the capability of a system to be adaptable depends on how objects, as rigid entities, co-operate. This paper describes a co-operative object-oriented architectural style for the development of software for adaptive systems.
