Abstract

The Anhinga Project is developing an infrastructure that supports board range of collaborative systems running on small proximal wireless devices in ad-hoc networks. The core of Anhinga Infrastructure is a new method invocation technology called the Many-to-Many Invocation (M2MI). In this technology, every method invocation is broadcasted through the network and all the objects that implement the same method execute it. M2MI is layered on a new network protocol, Many-to-Many Protocol (M2MP), which is designed for broadcasting messages within small wireless devices in Ad hoc network. In this project, I will provide three different design patterns of M2MI-based collaborative systems, implement and simulate those designs in LAN environment, and compare the advantages and disadvantages of the M2MI-based solutions with RMI-based solutions of those three different problems, collaborative groupware, multiple participants chat system, and the distributed solution of shared resource allocation. This project has the following research concepts: a) Investigate the design pattern and model design of collaborative groupware; b) Investigate the JAVA design and implementation of the collaborative groupware; c) Investigate M2MI mechanism using in the three different problems in ad hoc environment; d) Investigate the architecture, mechanism and performance of the designs of the three problems and compare them with RMI based solution. Test will be performed while using varieties of M2MP packets
