Hello Santosh,

        The DDS "Global Data Space" concept completely abstracts from location 
-- said in other terms, it 
makes data available where needed by dealing with network communication if 
necessary.

The shared memory, is one of the possible mechanisms used by OpenSplice to 
communicate between applications on the same node, yet, to a DDS application 
the location on the network is completely transparent w.r.t. the the 
availability of data.

I am not sure if you are familiar with tuple-spaces  (like Linda or 
JavaSpaces). DDS can be seen a a tuple-space with relaxed semantics. 
State-driven distributed applications tend to use DDS as a very 
high-performance tuple space with relaxed consistency (e.g. eventual 
consistency). 

However, you can also use DDS (by properly modelling topics and QoS) as a 
traditional pub/sub or messaging system.  As I explain in these slides 
http://www.slideshare.net/Angelo.Corsaro/distributed-events-state-and-commands 
you typically need both paradigm to properly model distributed state and 
distributed events. 

Some good source of information on DDS are available at:
