The CORTEX Programming Model
Biegel, G.; Blair, G.; Brudna, C.; Cahill, V.; Casimiro, António; Clarke, S.; Duran-Limon, H.; Fitzpatrick, A.; Friday, A.; Hughes, B.; Kaiser, J.The objective of D6 is to design a programming model suitable for the development of proactive applications constructed from mobile sentient objects. D6 embodies the final deliverable and follows its predecessor deliverable D2, the preliminary definition of the CORTEX programming model. It outlines our definition of sentient objects and describes how an application developer may program them in a context aware ...
Analysis and Design of Application Scenarios
Blair, G.; Cheverst, K.; Duran-Limon, H.; Friday, A.; Samartzidis, G.; Sivaharan, T.; Sousa, Paulo; Wu, M.The main aims of this document are both to demonstrate integration across project partner contributions and to identify and define suitable demo applications. The different contributions of the project partners are integrated in a middleware platform. Such platform makes also possible to reuse the system architecture in diverse applications. Moreover, the middleware allows us to provide configuration and reconf...
Definition of Application Scenarios
Biegel, G.; Blair, G.; Cahill, V.; Casimiro, António; Cheverst, K.; Cunningham, R.; Fitzpatrick, A.; Friday, A.; Gaertner, G.; Hughes, B.; Kaiser, J.The objective of D1 is to identify and analyse a set of application scenarios that, on the one hand, exemplify those application areas that might benefit from the technology being developed within the CORTEX project and, on the other hand, might serve as a source of requirements on this technology. Furthermore, at least a subset of the application scenarios considered here is expected to serve as source of demo...
CORTEX: Towards Supporting Autonomous and Cooperating Sentient Objects
Veríssimo, Paulo; Cahill, V.; Casimiro, António; Cheverst, K.; Friday, A.; Kaiser, J.We are now at the point where the emergence of a new class of applications that operate independently of direct human control can be envisaged. However, this is also the crossroads between the requirements put on system support, by the advances of research on high-level models for this class of applications--- e.g. on autonomous agents and distributed AI--- and the shortcomings of current architectures and midd...
