Summary:
This paper describes a framework called Advice. It can be used as middle-ware to implement many approaches for distributed object managment. It provides basic low-level mechanisms for flexible building of both, data-oriented and process-oriented distributed applications. This mechanisms include facilities for transparently moving and replicating the memory used by objects. Low-level policy and sharing semantics are always kept under user control and can be changed dinamically. Object systems implementing high level object migration, mobility, replication and load-balancing can benefit from it. The framework scalability is guaranteed and only a very minimal operating support is need.


Keywords: Object Mobility, Code Migration, Replication, Load Balancing
