The Adaptive Communication Environment (ACE) is an

classes designed to help address the inherent complexities and challenges in network programming by preventing common errors.[2]

History

ACE was initially developed by Douglas C. Schmidt during his graduate work at the University of California, Irvine. Development followed him to the Washington University in St. Louis, where he was employed. ACE is open-source software released by WU's Distributed Object Computer (DOC) group. Its development continued in the Institute for Software Integrated Systems (ISIS) at Vanderbilt University.[3]

Features

ACE provides a standardized usage for operating system/machine specific features. It provides common data types and methods

thread management, efficient memory management
, etc.

It was designed to be portable and provide a common framework. The same code will work on most

Boeing Wedgetail's Australian airborne early warning & control (AEW&C) system, and others.[6]

ACE used software design patterns.[7]
