Component for Remote Source
A tethered component is one for which the probe is located across the network from the model source. For example, the model source may be a piece of equipment that provides a proprietary network interface for accessing its attributes. To build such a component, you simply use the proprietary interface to fetch attribute values and assign the corresponding component property values. SCOOP handles the rest. Find out more.
Monolithic Component
A custom software module is an example of a monolithic component. Your module takes the place of the model source, and you turn your module into a working SCOOP component by defining a relevant set of properties that you keep up to date by assigning corresponding values. SCOOP will publish your property values and notify registered listeners of any changes, no matter where they are located across the network.
Embedded Component
An embedded component is one that is integrated with target hardware in a single package accessible from the network. Once packaged as a SCOOP component, the properties of embedded systems become accessible to remote clients of the distributed system just like other SCOOP components. Both Java and C APIs are available for building SCOOP components in embedded environments. Learn more.
