It isn't like javaspaces. I suppose you could stretch javaspaces to map to pubsub or pubsub to map to javaspaces, but they are quite different. I'd say javaspaces are loosely similar to pubsub queueing. Node as code is completely different. AFAIK, in javaspaces an item is published to a 'space', which normally gets sent to any one consumer. Node as code means the node behavior may be customized (filtering, transformations, etc) via custom code. The node may not even exist until someone subscribes. -- Waqas Hussain
