Abstract

Open systems consist of unbounded collections of objects that may interact in support of any of a number of activities. The features and services provided by each object require various measures of policy control of infrastructure components in order to provide appropriate quality of service for supported activities. This paper surveys some common and emerging Java-based design patterns for establishing and controlling service and application components in open object-oriented architectures.
