Description

This is the main page for the CI pilot project "Messaging Service". This service is based on high performance AMQP messaging provided by the RabbitMQ broker, a flexible set of messaging use & control services, as well as on conventions for routing and message type/content within CI pilot prototype implementations. The UCSD developed Magnet framework is the Python reference implementation of a service-oriented messaging service client adapter.

Iterations

Iteration 1: Basics

• Nanite Evaluation and Design/Information Model
• Benchmarking RabbitMQ/AMQP messaging and the messaging service
• See Iteration 1 Deliverables

Iteration 2:

• Design and provide the core implementation of the Messaging service and Magnet framework for application/agent integration
• See Iteration 2 Deliverables

Iteration 3:

• Investigation of John Day's Distributed IPC Facility
• Investigation of AMQP 1.0
• Investigation of FIPA Message Structure
• Refinement of Magnet
• See Iteration 3 Deliverables

Iteration 4:

• Provide a generic purpose messaging client (Magnet) for an AMQP based messaging system
• Provide telling use examples for messaging service clients
• Specification of the messaging service internals
• Supervision of messaging service development

Subsequent iterations are part of the COI subsystem inception period.
