The Internet has evolved from a simple email and file sharing
mechanism to a complex interconnection of web sites and dynamic
service offerings. Today's distributed applications must address
a number of problems like heterogenous platforms, disparate
clients, dissimilar communication protocols and formats, and
disconnected clients (and servers). What makes it possible
for a programmer to connect all of the seemingly incompatible pieces
of a distributed application together into a working
system is communication middleware. Middleware is the unseen
hero that works behind the scenes to resolve format differences,
mask the periodic disconnection of network components, and perform
multi-component synchronization. TSpaces represents a breakthrough
in communication middleware because it has combined sophisticated
database functionality with communication middleware to create the
first instance of an Intelligent Connectionware component.
