The ADAPTIVE Communication Environment (ACE)

The Adaptive Communication Framework is an open source - C ++ -Framework, the platform-independent , some design patterns provides for concurrent network applications.

history

ACE was initially developed by Douglas C. Schmidt while he was graduating from the University of California, Irvine . He pursued the project at Washington University in St. Louis , where it was first published as an open source software project. Today it is further developed at Vanderbilt University , where Douglas Schmidt teaches.

OS adapter layer

The OS Adapter Layer is directly ACE software layer, the operating system C - API uses. It shields the operating system independently of the platform with a POSIX- like interface. This interface includes programming interfaces for:

Design pattern

ACE implements the design patterns:

Event handler

Concurrency

  • Thread-specific storage
  • Monitor Object
  • Active Object
  • Half-Synch / Half-Asynch
  • Leader / Follower

Service Access and Configuration Patterns

  • Component Configurator
  • Interceptor
  • Extension Interface
  • Wrapper Facade
