Abstract

We present jETI, a redesign of the Electronic Tools Integration platform (ETI), that addresses the major issues and concerns accumulated over seven years of experience with tool providers, tool users and students. Most important was here the reduction of the effort for integrating and updating tools. jETI combines Eclipse and Web Services functionality with our Application Building Center (ABC), a framework supporting coordination based application development. This provides (1) lightweight remote component (tool) integration, (2) distributed component (tool) libraries, (3) a graphical coordination environment, and (4) a distributed execution environment. We illustrate these features by discussing their impact on the typical jETI user groups: the Tool Providers, the Standard Tool Users, and the Advanced Tool Users.
