Summary: OSGI Framework
Description:
Oscar is an open source implementation of the Open Services Gateway Initiative (OSGi) framework specification; the goal is to provide a completely compliant implementation of the OSGi framework specification. Oscar is currently compliant with a large portion of the OSGi 3 specifications, although certain compliance work still needs to be completed. Despite this fact, the OSGi framework functionality provided by Oscar is very stable and is in use by many people. Even though OSGi targets the embedded device market, the framework is ideally suited for experimenting with component-oriented and service-oriented computing in general. For example, Oscar can be easily embedded into other projects and used as a plugin or extension mechanism; it serves this purpose much better than other systems that are used for similar purposes, such as Java Management Extensions (JMX).
