A component-based middleware architecture for sentient computing.
Vinny Cahill, Mélanie Bouroche · Arrow@dit (Dublin Institute of Technology) · 2004
The Aithne project is developing a componentbased middleware architecture for sentient computing that provides developers with the possibility of constructing customised middleware to support dierent combinations of nonfunctional requirements. The architecture that we are designing is based on the concept of sentient objects - mobile intelligent software agents capable of sensing their environment and reacting based on their perceived context.
