In this week you will evaluate the functionality of middleware. You will accomplish this assignment by researching uses and vendors of middleware. In your paper be sure to:
• Diagram middleware using a variety of resources (minimum of three), depicting four different types captioned by their definitions
• Develop a personal definition of middleware based on your research,
• Develop a taxonomy of middleware functionality,
• Provide a minimum of four examples of vendor-supplied middleware,
• Describe your personal (or work) computer in terms of client-middleware-server functionality,
• Evaluate middleware by investigating privacy and security issues, especially for wireless networks,
• Compare and contrast the process whereby middleware supports (integrates) telephony, WLAN (e.g., WiFi), and wireless senor network (WSN).
