DEGAS Design Environments for Global ApplicationS IST Programme - FET pro-active initiative VI.2.2 "Global computing, cooperation of autonomous and mobile entities in dynamic environments"
The emerging wireless technologies make possible to tightly integrate computer resources into everyday objects to enhance their standard functionalities through inter-objects interactions.
The interaction between objects (such as mobile terminals) implies that future applications, designed and developed to be processed by these "smart" objects, must be compliant to work in a distributed environment. Hence, developers will need specific development tools for this kind of applications: i.e. *global applications. The objective of the DEGAS project is therefore to define and design a development environment for global applications based on a modelling language such as UML (Unified Modelling Language). Such a development environment should allow a developer of global applications to evaluate his applications from a qualitative* and quantitative point of view.
The Global Computing is a key action of the IST Programme, under the FET (Future and Emerging Technologies) initiative.	The roots of innovation
