An event can be defined as "a significant change in state". [2] For example, when a consumer purchases a car, the car's state changes from "for sale" to "sold". A car dealer's system architecture may treat this state change as an event whose occurrence can be made known to other applications within the architecture.
The event dispatching thread (EDT) is a background thread used in Java to process events from the Abstract Window Toolkit (AWT) graphical user interface event queue. It is an example of the generic concept of event-driven programming , that is popular in many other contexts than Java, for example, web browsers , or web servers .
The staged event-driven architecture (SEDA) refers to an approach to software architecture that decomposes a complex, event-driven application into a set of stages connected by queues. [1] It avoids the high overhead associated with thread -based concurrency models (i.e. locking, unlocking, and polling for locks), and decouples event and thread ...
The reactor software design pattern is an event handling strategy that can respond to many potential service requests concurrently.The pattern's key component is an event loop, running in a single thread or process, which demultiplexes incoming requests and dispatches them to the correct request handler.
Decorator UML class diagram. The decorator pattern can be used to extend (decorate) the functionality of a certain object statically, or in some cases at run-time, independently of other instances of the same class, provided some groundwork is done at design time.
Time-triggered systems can be viewed as a subset of a more general event-triggered (ET) system architecture (see event-driven programming).. Implementation of an ET system will typically involve use of multiple interrupts, each associated with specific periodic events (such as timer overflows) or aperiodic events (such as the arrival of messages over a communication bus at random points in time).
General Event Notification Architecture.. GENA Base defines an HTTP notification architecture that transmits notifications between HTTP resources. An HTTP resource could be any object which might need to send or receive a notification, for example a distribution list, buddy list, print job, etc.
Galen Framework is an open source layout and functional testing framework for websites, written in Java, which allows testing the look and feel of responsive websites. It has its own special language Galen Specs for describing the positioning and alignment of elements on a Web page.
