Eventizing applications in an adaptive middleware platform

An architecture supporting dynamic aspect-oriented programming establishes an event infrastructure for to extend existing application´s behavior at runtime. The adaptive middleware platform described to support the eventizing applications with extensions that are added at runtime in response to new requirements or necessary adaptations. We are currently completing its implementation and exploring more advanced forms of adaptation, including dynamic changes to the event management system itself. Furthermore, the implementation is still too heavy to run on resource-constrained devices like iPAQs, so we plan to take advantage of lighter virtual machines.
