RUNES
Reconfigurable Ubiquitous Networked Embedded Systems

The GOLLUM project has presented a joint deliverable with RUNES entitled "ULLA Integration to Middleware and Existing Technologies".

GOLLUM (Generic Open Link-Layer API for Unified Media access) aims at studying and creating key parts of an open, operating system independent link-layer API to support heterogeneous systems by unifying the various methods for accessing different wired and especially wireless links.

The deliverable discusses the integration of Universal Link Layer API (ULLA) with various existing middleware systems as well as other existing link-layer standards and different routing protocols. The document also gives an overview of basic ULLA design, followed by detailed state-of-the-art review on middleware technologies.
