Redirecting by injector
Robert E. Filman, D.D. Lee · 2002
Describes the Object Infrastructure Framework (OIF), a system that seeks to simplify the creation of distributed applications by injecting behavior on the communication paths between components. We touch on some of the "ilities" (security, reliability, QoS and manageability) and services that can be achieved with injector technology, and then focus on the uses of redirecting injectors - injectors that take requests directed at a particular server and generate requests directed at others. We close by noting that OIF is an aspect-oriented programming system, and comparing OIF to related work.
