Abstract

Personal information processing is an important and difficult challenge due to the many constraints involved and the need for open, easy to use systems. In the XTream project, we envision an extensible runtime platform and programming model that support users in easily defining complex data stream processing chains that can be arbitrarily connected to the streams of other users. The platform is based on modularization and service orientation to provide extensibility and handle the dynamism immanent in personal information processing applications. In this short paper we outline the most important aspects of the project.
