Supporting Mobility in Content-Based Publish/Subscribe Middleware

Felix Gaertner

Publish/subscribe (pub/sub) is considered a valuable middleware architecture that proliferates loose coupling and leverages reconfigurability and evolution. Up to now, existing pub/sub middleware was optimized for static systems where users as well as the ...

Reducing the Energy Usage of Office Applications

Willy Zwaenepoel

In this paper, we demonstrate how component-based middleware can reduce the energy usage of closed-source applications. We first describe how the Puppeteer system exploits well-defined interfaces exported by applications to modify their behavior. We then p ...
