Practical Protocol Composition, Encapsulation and Sharing in Kompics

• At the core of any distributed system is a set of concurrent distributed algorithms that coordinate the functionality of the distributed system. We present a software architecture, Kompics that is component-based and compositional which facilitates building distributed protocols. The underlying computation model subsumes that of event-based systems, SEDA (staged event-driven architecture.) and thread-based models. We illustrate various salient features of Kompics such as ease of use, compositionality and configurability through a series of well chosen distributed protocols.
