TERMINOLOGY
Machine to Machine
Machine to Machine (often abbreviated as M2M) refers to data communications between machines. The term also means the complexity of nsors which produce data, the communications channel which connects the nsors to a rver computer
and a software running on the rver, having the task to analy and report the collected data. Sometimes the same software is capable of intervening into the process. (Machine to Machine 2009.)
Open source software
Open source software is a computer software where the source code is provided under a software licen that meets the Open Source Definition or it is in the public domain. Open source software the
refore can be edited, modified and then redistributed freely, given certain conditions are met (e.g. not placing the software under a more restrictive licen, providing the licen with the software, etc.) (Open Source Initiative 2009.)
Mango
The open-source Mango software is one – although a crucial – element of a whole
M2M system. Its role is to gather and process data, prent this raw data in a way which is comprehensible to a human operator who can, in turn, nd commands and thus control the process: Mango is an “open source alternative for Machine-to-Machine (M2M) software [...]. Mango is browr-bad, Ajax-enabled M2M software that enables urs to access and control electronic nsors, devices, and machines over multiple protocols simultaneously.” (Mango, open source M2M 2009.)
MVC
MVC is the acronym for the Model–View–Controller (MVC) architectural pattern ud in software engineering. The purpo of this pattern is to simplify the implementation of applications that need to
act on ur requests and manipulate and display data. The model is the data to be prented to the ur. The view part is in charge of rendering the model in a suitable manner. And lastly, the controller is responsible for processing and acting on ur requests. It loads and prepares the model, choos the appropriate view and finally pass the model to the chon view for rendering. (Machacek, Vukotic, Chakraborty & Ditt 2008, 611.)
学习的方法Spring's Web MVC framework才华横溢的近义词
Spring is an open source framework, created by Rod Johnson. It was created to address the complexity of enterpri application development. With a more technical description one could describe it as a lightweight dependency injection and aspect-oriented container and framework. For a more in-depth analys of Spring, refer to Walls 2008. The Spring framework is made up of veral well-defined modules built on top of the core container. Such modules are for example the ORM integration module, JMX module, JDBC abstraction and the DAO module. The Spring Web MVC framework is just one of the modules, implementing the MVC architectural pattern. (Ladd, Donald 2006, 7.)
威尼斯总督府Direct Web Remoting
“DWR, which is short for Direct Web Remoting, is a Java-bad Ajax framework that lets you access virtually any rver-side Java object through JavaScript. DWR abstracts XMLHttpRequest away so that invoking methods on a rver-side Java object is as simple as invoking methods on a client-side JavaScript object.” (Walls 2008, 650.) DWR dynamically converts the rver-side Java objects into JavaScript ones that implement the same interface as the original Java objects. The JavaScript libraries are also responsible for nding XMLHttpRequest s from the browr to the rver and dynamically updating the web page with the data nt back.
Dojo JavaScript toolkit
Dojo is an open source JavaScript framework that simplifies Ajax programming. It is a collection of JavaScript components to assist building JavaScript applications.
