  1. Context-aware management of e-services(Tempura reengineering) Vladimir Valkanov University of Plovdiv 13th Workshop "SERE" Bansko, 26-31 Aug. 2013

  2. DeLC Project • Main goal: delivering e-services to support e-learning; • DeLC architecture: distributed system, containing fixed and mobile nodes; • Mobile node: providing mobile access to the services, through intelligent wireless network based on InfoStation architecture; 13th Workshop "SERE" Bansko, 26-31 Aug. 2013

  3. Infrastructure of DeLC 13th Workshop "SERE" Bansko, 26-31 Aug. 2013

  4. Mobile node middleware 13th Workshop "SERE" Bansko, 26-31 Aug. 2013

  5. Main goal • To expand the middleware with intelligent agents, which are able to detect and manage time aspects of delivering educational services and content in distributed InfoStation network. 13th Workshop "SERE" Bansko, 26-31 Aug. 2013

  6. Tasks • To investigate and specify time aspects of the mobile node • Choose a proper formalism to manage the time components in the system • To find a proper approach for realisation • To create architecture • To create a prototype • To integrate in DeLC 13th Workshop "SERE" Bansko, 26-31 Aug. 2013

  7. Time aspects • Scenarios • They specify the functionality of our communication environment (InfoStations) • During the execution of a service different local events could happened : • Getting in range of an IS • Getting out of range of an IS • Change the mobile device • The existing middleware could react to various events, but he is unable to represent them in time order. • No management mechanism • In the scenario point of view the problem is to manage scenario change and execution 13th Workshop "SERE" Bansko, 26-31 Aug. 2013

  8. Choosing a proper formalism • Interval Temporal Logic (ITL) • Ben Moszkowski– Computer Laboratory, University of Cambridge • What is ITL: • First order logic with added time dependent operators like “sometimes” , “always”, “next” … • Considering time as a discrete sequence of points in time called intervals • For ITL there is an interpreting mechanism and its program realisation called Tempura. 13th Workshop "SERE" Bansko, 26-31 Aug. 2013

  9. Tempura • Imperative programming language which use subset of ITL: • First interpreter was written in Prolog • Current version: • Roger Hale, Ph.D. thesisin Cambridge , 1984-1985 г., C • Maintenance: Antonio Cau, STRL, De Montfort University • AnaTempura • The centralize surrounding environment of Tempura 13th Workshop "SERE" Bansko, 26-31 Aug. 2013

  10. AnaTempura 13th Workshop "SERE" Bansko, 26-31 Aug. 2013

  11. Approach • Three possible ways: • Wrapping Tempura with I/O Java classes • Creating a complete new Java version of ITL interpreter • Reengineering the existing C-based version of Tempura 13th Workshop "SERE" Bansko, 26-31 Aug. 2013

  12. Why reengineering? • Missing documentation and specification of the basic algorithms used in the interpreter • Homogeneous environment • Using proven system and already prepared test cases 13th Workshop "SERE" Bansko, 26-31 Aug. 2013

  13. Reengineering in steps • Iterative hand-made translation • C to Java without changing the imperative structure of the system • ImperativeJava to OO Java • OO Java to AO Java (JADE) 13th Workshop "SERE" Bansko, 26-31 Aug. 2013

  14. Approach schema 13th Workshop "SERE" Bansko, 26-31 Aug. 2013

  15. Schema of the original Tempura C-code 13th Workshop "SERE" Bansko, 26-31 Aug. 2013

  16. Schema ofOO Java version 13th Workshop "SERE" Bansko, 26-31 Aug. 2013

  17. Prototype • ImperativeJava interpreter • Standard Test Suite • ОО Java interpreter • Extended Test Suite , received from STRL 13th Workshop "SERE" Bansko, 26-31 Aug. 2013

  18. AO Java interpreter • Possibilities • Transform the interpreter in a single agent • Or multi-agent system • InfoStationmiddleware • To substitute AnaTempura • Decentralized delivery of attribute values ​​from the environment • Development framework • JADE • BDI architecture • BDI4JADE plug-in 13th Workshop "SERE" Bansko, 26-31 Aug. 2013

  19. Package suggestion 13th Workshop "SERE" Bansko, 26-31 Aug. 2013

  20. Transform into package structure 13th Workshop "SERE" Bansko, 26-31 Aug. 2013

  21. AO Tempura life-cycle suggestion 13th Workshop "SERE" Bansko, 26-31 Aug. 2013

  22. Next steps • Realisation of an AO Java interpreter prototype • Integration into DeLC agent middleware • Testing in real DeLC environment 13th Workshop "SERE" Bansko, 26-31 Aug. 2013

  23. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION 13th Workshop "SERE" Bansko, 26-31 Aug. 2013
