Multiple people and components: Considerations for designing multi-user middleware
Abstract
Despite some signs of success, there is still a long way to go in addressing the growing complexity-management gap in middleware systems. One issue that can create complexity for users is a mismatch between tasks in multi-person environments and the task flows in middleware management tools. We present an example scenario that illustrates the complexity of multi-user task flows. This is followed by a discussion of the implications for the design of IT middleware management tools.
