Abstract
We make two observations about communications middleware:first, most middleware are similar, the differencesare in their interfaces and optimizations; second, neither afixed set of abstractions nor a fixed implementation of a setof abstractions is likely to be sufficient and well-performingfor all applications.Based on these observations, we present Quarterware,a customizable middleware architecture. It abstracts basicmiddlware functionality, and admits application specific...Keywords
