Abstract
A large class of distributed testing, control and collaborative applications
are reactive or event driven in nature. Such applications can be structured
as a set of handlers that react to events and that in turn can trigger other
events. We have developed an application building toolkit that facilitates
development of such applications. Our system is based on the concept of
Mobile Streams. Applications developed in our system are dynamically
extensible and re-configurable and our system provides the application
designer a means to control how the system can be extended and reconfigured.
We describe our system model and implementation and compare our design to
the design of other systems.
