It is built upon Apache ActiveMQ and is backed by Amazon MQ, which is a managed message broker service for Apache ActiveMQ. Cloud Message Queue utilizes the features of Amazon MQ to ensure its high availability and message durability. Cloud Message Queue is designed to replace Predix Message Queue which is built upon RabbitMQ. The Predix Message Queue service will no longer be available in future and therefore, GE Digital recommends you migrate to the Cloud Message Queue service before the Predix Message Queue service is deprecated. Some of the salient features of Cloud Message Queue are as follows: • It supports a wide range of clients, including Java Message Service (JMS) 1.1 and .NET Message Service (NMS). • It is compatible with a range of programming languages, including Node.js, Go, Python, Ruby, and C++. • It supports various wire-level protocols, such as Advanced Message Queuing Protocol (AMQP), Simple (or Streaming) Text Oriented Messaging Protocol (STOMP), OpenWire, WebSocket, and MQ Telemetry Transport (MQTT). • It provides all the standard JMS features, including point-to-point messaging, publish/subscribe messaging, request/reply, persistent and non-persistent modes, JMS transactions, and distributed (XA) transactions. • It provides the flexibility of sending messages through both queues and topics, using a single-broker. In point-to-point messaging, the ActiveMQ broker balances the load by routing each message from the queue to one of the available consumers in a sequential manner. In pub/sub messaging, the broker delivers each message to every consumer that has subscribed to the topic. • In addition to basic queues and topics, it supports other complex patterns, such as composite and virtual destinations. Composite destinations are used for producers to send the same message to multiple destinations. Whereas, virtual destinations are used for publishers to broadcast messages through a topic to a pool of receivers subscribing through queues. Note: Currently, Cloud Message Queue supports the following versions of ActiveMQ: • 5.15.0 • 5.15.6 • 5.15.8 • 5.15.9 • 5.15.10 2 © 2020 General Electric Company Chapter 2 Architecture Topics: • Cloud Message Queue Architecture © 2020 General Electric Company 3 Cloud Message Queue Architecture The following architecture diagram provides a high-level information on how a user application interacts with an Amazon MQ (ActiveMQ) instance using the Cloud Message Queue service. The ActiveMQ message broker sends the messages from one application to another. The application that creates a message is called the producer and the application that receives and processes that message is called the consumer of the message. The message broker routes each message through one of the following destinations: • Queue: Used in a point-to-point messaging domain where the message awaits its delivery to a single consumer. • Topic: Used in a publish/subscribe or pub/sub messaging domain where the message is delivered to multiple consumers that have subscribed to the topic. 4 © 2020 General Electric Company Chapter 3 Getting Started with Cloud Message Queue Topics: • Create Cloud Message Queue Service Instance • Update Cloud Message Queue Service Instance • Bind the Cloud Foundry Application to the Cloud Message Queue Service Instance • Unbind the Cloud Foundry Application from the Cloud Message Queue Service Instance • Delete Cloud Message Queue Service Instance © 2020 General Electric Company 5 Create Cloud Message Queue Service Instance About This Task You can create the Cloud Message Queue service instance with default or customized Amazon MQ configurations. For more information on Amazon MQ configurations, and their elements and attributes, refer to Amazon MQ documentation. Procedure 1. In the Cloud Foundry (CF) Command Line Interface, run the following command to access the list of Cloud Message Queue plans that are available in the CF marketplace for subscription: cf m -s cloud-message-queue 2. Depending on whether you want to use the default or customized Amazon MQ configurations, perform one of the following tasks: • Create the instance with the default configurations. • Create the instance with customized configurations. Create Service Instance with Default Configurations Procedure 1. Access KBA 000036364, and then download the configuration file corresponding to the version of your ActiveMQ broker specified in the following table: ActiveMQ Version Configuration File 5.15.0 defaultConfigForEngineVersion5-15-0.zip 5.15.6 defaultConfigForEngineVersion5-15-6.zip 5.15.8 defaultConfigForEngineVersion5-15-8.zip 5.15.9 defaultConfigForEngineVersion5-15-9.zip 5.15.10 defaultConfigForEngineVersion5-15-10.zip Note: By default, the KahaDB persistence adapter is enabled in all the configurations. If you want to access the broker or destination metrics within your application, you must enable <statisticsBrokerPlugin/>. 2. Extract the content of the downloaded ZIP file. 3. In the Cloud Foundry (CF) Command Line Interface, run the following command to create the service instance: cf create-service cloud-message-queue <subscription_plan_name> <service_instance_name> Note: • The angle brackets (< >) in the command indicate placeholder text. You must replace the placeholder text with an appropriate value before running the command. • By default, Cloud Message Queue supports ActiveMQ V5.15.9 and the default configuration of ActiveMQ V5.15.9 will be used to create the instance. 6 © 2020 General Electric Company Create Service Instance with Customized Configurations About This Task You can create the Cloud Message Queue service instance with customized values of the following parameters: • ActiveMQ configuration XML • ActiveMQ engine version • Description string Important: The angle brackets (< >) in this topic indicate placeholder text.

Some example projects where D-Bus is used are GNOME and Hildon. Compared to other middleware layers for IPC, D-Bus lacks many of the more refined (and complicated) features and for that reason, is faster and simpler. D-Bus does not directly compete with low level IPC mechanisms like sock- ets, shared memory or message queues. Each of these mechanisms have their uses, which normally do not overlap the ones in D-Bus. Instead, D-Bus aims to provide higher level functionality, like: Structured name spaces • Architecture independent data formatting • Support for the most common data elements in messages • A generic remote call interface with support for exceptions (errors) • A generic signalling interface to support "broadcast" type communication • Clear separation of per-user and system-wide scopes, which is important • when dealing with multi-user systems Not bound to any specific programming language (while providing a • design that readily maps to most higher level languages, via language specific bindings) The design of D-Bus benefits from the long experience of using other mid- dleware IPC solutions in the desktop arena and this has allowed the design to be optimised.

  • Multiprocess Communication and Control Software for Humanoid Robots Neil T
    IEEE Robotics and Automation Magazine Multiprocess Communication and Control Software for Humanoid Robots Neil T. Dantam∗ Daniel M. Lofaroy Ayonga Hereidx Paul Y. Ohz Aaron D. Amesx Mike Stilman∗ I. Introduction orrect real-time software is vital for robots in safety-critical roles such as service and disaster response. These systems depend on software for Clocomotion, navigation, manipulation, and even seemingly innocuous tasks such as safely regulating battery voltage. A multi-process software design increases robustness by isolating errors to a single process, allowing the rest of the system to continue operating. This approach also assists with modularity and concurrency. For real-time tasks such as dynamic balance and force control of manipulators, it is critical to communicate the latest data sample with minimum latency. There are many communication approaches intended for both general purpose and real-time needs [19], [17], [13], [9], [15]. Typical methods focus on reliable communication or network-transparency and accept a trade-off of increased mes- sage latency or the potential to discard newer data. By focusing instead on the specific case of real-time communication on a single host, we reduce communication latency and guarantee access to the latest sample. We present a new Interprocess Communication (IPC) library, Ach,1 which addresses this need, and discuss its application for real-time, multiprocess control on three humanoid robots (Fig. 1). There are several design decisions that influenced this robot software and motivated development of the Ach library. First, to utilize decades of prior development and engineering, we implement our real-time system on top of a POSIX-like Operating System (OS)2.

Android has the potential for removing the barriers to success in the development and sale of a new generation of mobile phone application software. Just as the standardized PC and Macintosh platforms created markets for desktop and server software, Android, by providing a standard mobile phone application environment, creates a market for mobile applications and the opportunity for applica- tions developers to profit from those applications. One of the main intentions of Android platform is to eliminate the duplication of functionality in different applications to allow functionality to be discovered and in- voked on the fly, and to let users replace applications with others that offer similar func- tionality. The main problem here is how to develop applications that must have as few dependencies as possible, and must be able to provide services to other applications. This thesis studies the Android mobile operating system, its capabilities in develop- ing applications that communicate with each other and provide services to other applica- tions. As part of the study, a sample application called “Event Planner”, has been devel- oped to experiment how Inter Process Communication works in Android platform, ex- plains how to implement, and use Inter Process Communication (IPC).

  • Writing a Message Broker in Golang
    Writing a Message Broker in GoLang George Vanburgh Supervised by Alvaro A.A. Fernandes May 3, 2016 A report submitted in part fulfilment of the degree of BSc (Hons) in Computer Science with Industrial Experience Abstract This report details an exercise in learning and evaluating the 'Go' programming language, by building a feature-rich application message broker using modern software engineering techniques and best practises. Some of the unique features of Go are presented, and the importance and relevance of these features in building simple, high-performance distributed software is explored. Discussion of the novel 'CSP-style' concurrency features in Go lead to an unorthodox design proposal for an enterprise-style messaging broker - George's Asynchronous Message Broker (gamq). The implementation of gamq is then is then described and critiqued. Finally, the process and results of the software testing are presented, and analysed.
