Implementation of Publisher-Subscriber Paradigm Using Virtual Organisms

In computer science, Virtual Organisms (VO) are structures capable of populating the level between hardware and adaptive software agents. This paper discusses the applicability of this concept to the publisher-subscriber paradigm by having a VO as the broker inside the network. When considering long distances between publishers and subscribers, the VO's (or broker's) usage is to optimize their connection experience. Thus, the VO's cells can be used as either mirroring nodes to support streaming applications, or just as nodes managing traffic flow optimizations in the publisher-subscriber paradigm. The paper also presents a novel greedy algorithm and workflows for choosing the intermediate path nodes connecting entities in the network through the VO's cells. The evaluation section shows how it can be applied to optimize routing traffic in cloud computing for gaming using a real dataset, and also introduces the concept of predictive reconfiguration for VOs.
