Tutorials on ACE and OO Communication Frameworks and Patterns

• Powerpoint tutorial based on the C++ Network Programming: Mastering Complexity with ACE and Patterns. This tutorial describes the C++ wrapper facades in ACE.

• Powerpoint tutorial based on the C++ Network Programming: Systematic Reuse with ACE and Frameworks book. This tutorial describes the C++ frameworks in ACE.

• Pattern-Oriented Distributed Software Architectures. This tutorial is based on material in the two volumes of the Pattern-Oriented Software Architecture series, which provide the architectural foundation for many frameworks and wrapper facades in ACE.

• C++ Network Programming with Patterns, Frameworks, and ACE. This tutorial provides an overview of the key patterns, frameworks, and wrapper facades in ACE. In addition, it examines case studies based on a number of commercial projects where ACE has been used.

• Developing Efficient and Portable Communication Software with ACE and C++

  This tutorial provides an overview of the ACE OS adaptation layer and the design and use of its C++ Socket wrappers.

• Design Patterns and Frameworks for Developing Object-oriented WWW Clients and Servers

  This tutorial gives a overview of techniques for developing OO WWW clients and servers, focusing on strategic concurrent and distributed design patterns. It presents an example illustrating the design patterns used to develop a high-performance concurrent HTTP server. I also have a more comprehensive tutorial on the same topic that includes complete C++ source code examples.

• Using OO Design Patterns and Frameworks to Develop Object-Oriented Communication Systems

  This tutorial gives a overview of techniques for developing OO communication software, focusing on concurrent and distributed design patterns. It presents an example illustrating the strategic design patterns used to develop production application-level gateways. I also have a more comprehensive tutorial on the same topic that includes complete C++ source code examples.

• Design Patterns and Frameworks for Object-Oriented Communication Systems

  This tutorial gives a overview of techniques for developing OO communication software, focusing on concurrent and distributed design patterns. It presents an example illustrating the strategic design patterns used to develop production distributed medical imaging systems. I also have a more comprehensive tutorial on the same topic that includes complete C++ source code examples.

• Design Patterns for Concurrent Object-Oriented Programming with ACE and C++

  This tutorial gives a comprehensive overview of techniques for concurrent OO software development, focusing both on concurrency design patterns and their expression in OO frameworks. It gives several source code examples, including extensive coverage of a high-performance concurrent HTTP server built using ACE and C++.

• Concurrent Object-Oriented Network Programming with ACE and C++

  This tutorial gives a comprehensive overview of techniques for developing OO communication software, focusing both on design patterns and their expression in OO frameworks. It gives several source code examples, including extensive coverage of a distributed logging system and an application-level gateway.

• Design Patterns for Initializing Network Servcies in OO Communication Frameworks

  This tutorial presents a family of design patterns that are useful for initializing network services in the ACE "OO" communication software framework. These patterns enable network servers to flexibly configure and reconfigure strategies for interprocess communication, connection and service handling, demultiplexing, service creation, service connection acceptance, and service concurrency. The patterns covered in this tutorial include strategic patterns (such as the Reactor and Acceptor used in ACE) as well as tactical patterns (such as the Adapter, Bridge, Factory Method, and Strategy pattern described in the Gang of Four design patterns catelog).

• Techniques for OO Network Programming with C++

  This tutorial gives an overview of techniques for developing OO communication software, focusing both on network programming design patterns and their expression in OO frameworks. It gives an extensive source code example of a distributed medical imaging system built in C++. I've also given a more comprehensive tutorial on the same topic that includes additional C++ source code examples.
