XCO provides coordination solutions based on extensible virtual shared memory infrastructures. Coordination middleware reduces development and operational complexity of distributed systems, helping software designers to develop distributed applications faster and safer than ever before.

The XVSM Technology

XVSM (eXtensible Virtual Shared Memory) is the technological paradigm of our products. XVSM provides a middleware solution based on the principles of shared data spaces. Software developers write simple, single threaded programs that interact through a distributed, coordinated environment realizing a large variety of interaction patterns.

XcoSpaces - The Software Infrastructure Product

Based on more than 15 years of experience with earlier products in the field of distributed programming, XcoSpaces (for "Extensible Trusted Spaces") is a highly extensible, lightweight and high-performance space based computing solution.

Features include:

• extensible coordination models: exploit one or more in combination
• transactions instead of cumbersome thread-synchronisation
• lightweight persistency: easy to use and understand
• interceptor mechanism: support of plug-ins for specialized solutions
• easy to deploy: no registry entry
• synchronous and asynchronous communication: highly reliable
• embedded and standalone versions
• highly portable
• usable in realtime applications
