Title
Eleggua: An Event Infrastructure for Application Cooperation
Abstract
Global Software Development (GSD) is a reality but still faces a lot of challenges to give solutions to problems related to software processes themselves, and problems raised by geographical dispersion. Focusing on the latter, we are interested in building a supporting soft- ware development environment to integrate processes and tools. This paper introduces Eleggua, an infrastructure for application cooperation with a central focus on low coupling and loose integration of applications. Eleggua is based on distributed events and Web Services for communica- tion. It also uses Event Condition Action (ECA) rules to describe appli- cation cooperation models. The goal of application cooperation is to en- sure consistency and integrity of overlapping domain concepts embedded in applications that interact throughout the enactment of business pro- cesses. The main restrictions on the design are imposed by the existence of heterogeneous, distributed, legacy systems which are too expensive to modify. Eleggua is being validated in the context of a GSD project1 focused on improving processes of a software house that faces the challenges of geographical dispersion.
