Ariba - Overlay-based Middleware

Ariba is an overlay-based middleware that implements the underlay abstraction layer of the ​Spontaneous Virtual Networks (SpoVNet) architecture. It aims to ease the development of flexible, adaptive, and spontaneous overlay-based services on top of heterogeneous networks. To this end, Ariba provides generic mechanisms for dealing with underlay characteristics and by providing an identifier based addressing scheme.

Ariba is developed at the ​Institute of Telematics (research group Prof. Zitterbart), Universität Karlsruhe (TH) within the scope of the ​SpoVNet project funded by the ​Landesstiftung Baden-Württemberg within the Förderprogramm Informationstechnik Baden-Württemberg (BW-FIT) Programm. Ariba is actively developed and open to contributions. If you have any questions regarding Ariba, please send an email to the ariba@….
