DISTRIBUTED PROCESSING OF MEASUREMENT RESULTS IN A CONTROL SYSTEM: CAN MOBILE SOFTWARE AGENTS HELP?

• Abstract:

  Distributed processing of measurement results poses a number of challenges. Among important requirements are security, performance, robustness and ability to withstand network failures, need for flexibility and elegance of a proposed solution. We propose a novel approach to distributed processing, which capitalises on locality of data access. We propose a distributed software architecture that leverages a flexible consistency checking engine and takes advantage of software agency features in order to meet the mentioned distributed processing requirements.
