Aplicação de um framework orientado a objetos para escalonamento de tarefas no ambiente ExPSEE

Abstract

The application of an object-oriented framework for task scheduling in the ExPSEE Environment is provided. ExPSEE is an experimental Process-centred Software Engineering Environment. However, this framework can be used in other domains such as Workflow Management Systems and Project Management Systems. The task scheduling framework was based on both current methods for the development of frameworks and on an existing architectural pattern for process managers. A prototype of the framework was developed using the Java Language. It shows the experience of extracting a framework from well-known applications that can be reused in practical domains. The research in current paper contributes in the production of a framework and gives insights in the application of novel techniques towards the development of frameworks
