Description
The enhanced communication abstraction layer (eCAL) is a middleware that enables scalable, high performance interprocess communication on a single computer node or between different nodes in a computer network. The design is inspired by known Data Distribution Service for Real-Time Systems (see Data distribution service on wikipedia). The current eCAL implementation realizes a subset of such a DDS system, there is only a basic support for Quality of Service (QoS) driven data transport (best effort and reliable).
eCAL is designed for typical cloud computing scenarios where different processes exchange their I/O’s using a publisher/subscriber pattern. The data exchange is based on so called topics. A topic wraps the payload that should be exchanged with additional informations like a unique name, a type and a description. A topic can be connected to more than one publisher and/or subscriber. These are the basic elements of the eCAL API.

AREG SDK
AREG is a cross-platform asynchronous Object RPC framework to simplify multitasking programming by blurring borders between processes and treating remote objects as if they coexist in the same thread.
