Age 1950’s 1980’s Mid-1990’s Jini Communities
Java™ Technology Services 2000 History of Jini Sun R&D project (Bill Joy, and Jim Waldo with Ann Wollrath, theinventor/designer of RMI, Ken Arnold, the designer of JavaSpaces, and Bob Schleifer, designer of Lookup/Discovery).
Mid-1960‘s: David Gelernter (Yale) developed a programming language called LINDA (http://www.cs.yale.edu/HTML/YALE/CS/Linda/linda.html) Linda and JavaSpaces JavaSpaces: implementation of the ideas behind LINDA but greater use of recent advances in object technology, namely Java.
``The work at Yale focused mainly on data, but today we can just move objects in and out of JavaSpaces [. . .] JavaSpaces is essentially a facility for communicating tasks out and bringing jobs back'' (James Gosling). Drivers of Transition to the Networked Age Increased network bandwidth
Bandwidth is pervasive — increase in the number of wired/ wireless networks
Inexpensive processing power (systems on a chip)
Software based on objects and agents Ten Megatrends Services – not applications
Wireless > Internet > PC markets

Content => service => device
Network centric development
Focus on business logic and accessibility
Capacity planning is an oxymoron
Supply chain integration and auctioning as examples of new business model

Products (and content?) will metamorphose into services
Light bulb -> illumination lease Big Questions How rich does the set of network-supported services become?
How can we interoperate without a PhD in networking?
The Quest For Connectivity Jini technology, based on Java technology,
enables digital services to simply connect together. What is Jini? Software layer (48kB) to describe services to the net
Runs on all Java Virtual Machines (JVM) on any device (from mainframe to toaster)
Only the Front-End of the service is transmitted---Distributed Computing
End of all Protocols as we know them
Resilience: does not assume that networks always work Jini Technology Enables You to Simply Connect Instant On
Plug it in and it just works, no fuss, hassle free
Impromptu community
Create your personal community of devices and services — at home, in the office, or on the road — and interact with other communities quickly and easily
Resilient
Your Jini community maintains itself & adapts to change
Your Jini community is always available
The Service Age allows the system to be more tolerant and redundant

Small code base
No complicated OS
Everything is an object
Use RMI to extend objects to remote resources
Self-healing networks
System restores state after failures
Resilience
Community
Easy access to Jini technology
Anyone can join the Jini community Everything is an object
Distributed system is just a distributed program
Java Class Hierarchy describes devices/services
Mobile Code via Remote Method Invocation
Leasing and distributed garbage collection provides self-healing
Individual devices/services can be simple, don’t require a Java Virtual Machine

Technology Let objects find each other,... …add simple APIs for remote objects and basic distributed computing,... …then everything else is a service. Discover (find) and join a community of Jini technology-enabled devices
Advertise its capabilities
Provide any required software and attributes – no drivers required
Requires only one Java Virtual Machine on the network
Send out a multicast packet with reference to yourself
Receive a RMI reference to the Lookup Service Innovative Solution for Finding the Place to Start in an Unknown Network Jini Technology Infrastructure: Discovery & Join Repository of available services
Stores service as extensible set of Java application objects
ID, interface, GUI’s, attributes, drivers...
Service objects downloaded as required
May be federated with other lookup services
Lookup Service interface
Registration, Access, Search, Removal Binds the Jini Community Together Jini Technology Infrastructure: Lookup Service Basic communication mechanism between components in a Jini system
Secure ability to find, activate, and garbage collect objects
Allows data as well as code to be passed from object to object Jini Technology Infrastructure: Moving Code Uses Java Technology Remote Method Invocation (RMI) Protocol for managing resources using a renewable, duration based model
Contract between objects
Resources can be shared or nonshared Provides Method of Managing Resources in a Networked Environment Jini Technology Programming Model: Leasing Designed for distributed object conversations
Light weight, object-oriented
Supports subset levels of ACID properties
Supports nested transactions
Uses leasing protocol Enables Distributed Entities to Cooperate Jini Technology Programming Model: Transactions Extends Java platform event model to allow it to work in a distributed network
Register interest, receive notification
Allows for easy use of event managers
Can use numerous distributed delivery models: Push, pull, filter ...
Uses leasing protocol Addresses Peculiarities of Messages in the Networked Environment Jini Technology Programming Model: Distributed Events Jini distributed security adds notion of principal and access control lists
Jini services are accessed on behalf of a principle which traces back to a particular user/device
Access to a service depends on the access control list associated with that service Builds on the Java Virtual Machine Jini Technology Infrastructure: Distributed Security Shared, “dynamic memory” for networked Java Virtual Machines
Helps federate the network of Java Virtual Machines
Provides simple, dynamic object persistence
Facilitates alternative messaging patterns
async, store and forward, routed, filtered...
