Distributed Service Middleware
The Data Information Management System (DIMS) contains a family of distributable and autonomous software components. All of them share common basic functions which have been implemented as a generic service framework upon Java, including
- Synchronous and asynchronous client-server communication
- Session handling with role-based access control
- Asynchronous request handling with secure signal handling
- Workflow management
- Transaction-safe persistence of business objects
- Basic monitoring and control
The target platform of DIMS is Java on Solaris/Linux. It makes use of third party public domain or commercial off-the-shelf software.
