====== Course 1 ======

===== Introduction =====

==== What does Traditional Middleware Mean ? ====

=== Motivations ===

  * make development faster and easier

  * to assist distributed software

  * promoting software reuse

  * A bridge between OS and application [Krakoviak]

  * High level network abstractions matching the application computational model  [Issarny]

=== First Definitions ===

=== Middleware Taxonomies ===

  * W. Emmerich Taxonomy (2000)
  * D.E. Baken (2001)
  * R. E. Schantz and D. C. Schmidt Taxonomy (2002)

== Transactional Middleware ==
== Tuplespace-based Middleware ==
== Message-oriented Middleware ==
== Remote procedure Calls Middleware ==

==== What does Middleware for Ubiquitous Computing Mean ? ====

=== New motivations ===

  * High level device and ressource abstractions matching the application computational model 
  * device and ressource abstraction is often transparency in multiple access  
  * Distribution with or without nertwork ...

=== Example in  distributed systems ===

=== Example in  OS and Virtual Machine  ===

=== Example in  HMI ===

  * application computational model : widgets 
  * low level device drivers : mouse and screen 
  * Middleware :  

=== Example  in  Robotics  ===
