This announcement can be found at Bridging the Gap between Distributed Middleware and Software Engineering Date: 16.10.03 Time: 10:00 Venue: M280 Speaker: Vania Marangozova Title: Bridging the Gap between Distributed Middleware and Software Engine ering Vania Marangozova has defended her PhD in the domain of distributed middleware in june 2003. Since October 1st, she has started to work as an ERCIM fellow in the software engineering team (SEN1) of Prof. P. Klint. In this talk she will present her previous activities on replication configuration and will introduce some initial ideas on the application of her expertise to the SEN1 problems. In the first part of the talk she will introduce the notion of middleware and present current distributed middleware issues. She will define the context of her replication-oriented research and will detail the approach and the results of her PhD. In the second part of the talk, she will present possible research directions. These directions are motivated by SEN1's needs, spelled in "middleware" terms and analysed in terms of applicability to both SEN1's and distributed middleware contexts. Although the talk is mostly meant for SEN1's members, everyone interested in distributed middleware and replication or willing to have a glimpse on SEN1's generic language activities, is welcome. _________________________________________________________________ The programming environment meetings are a forum for the presentation and discussion of new ideas, ongoing and finished work. A typical meeting addresses a subject in the area of programming environments, program generation, algebraic specification, term rewriting, parsing, etc. A presentation ideally takes between 45 and 90 minutes. Meetings taking longer than 45 minutes are interrupted by a coffeebreak. Most Thursdays, a meeting is held which starts at 10:00 am. in one of the rooms at CWI/WINS. Exceptionally, dates or times may change. The program of the meetings is available on WWW: http://www.cwi.nl/~pem _________________________________________________________________
