Solent --- a Platform for Distributed Open Hypermedia Applications
Solent --- a Platform for Distributed Open Hypermedia Applications
 
  Today's open hypermedia systems (OHS) provide middleware services for a range of hypertext applications. However, configuration and adaptation to specific applications' requirements is a tedious task. Research has been conducted into further splitting hypermedia middleware systems up into sets of interacting components that can be combined, extended and configured dynamically. These component-based open hypermedia systems (CB-OHS) allow for better adaptability, configurability and also interoperability amongst hypermedia middleware systems themselves. Described is the Solent component-based open hypermedia system. In particular, we focus on architecture, dynamic service discovery and invocation as well as the storage interface, which allows for storage and retrieval of arbitrary hierarchical structures encoded in XML.

          Abstract
          Today's open hypermedia systems (OHS) provide middleware services for a range of hypertext applications. However, configuration and adaptation to specific applications' requirements is a tedious task. Research has been conducted into further splitting hypermedia middleware systems up into sets of interacting components that can be combined, extended and configured dynamically. These component-based open hypermedia systems (CB-OHS) allow for better adaptability, configurability and also interoperability amongst hypermedia middleware systems themselves. Described is the Solent component-based open hypermedia system. In particular, we focus on architecture, dynamic service discovery and invocation as well as the storage interface, which allows for storage and retrieval of arbitrary hierarchical structures encoded in XML.
