The Java Data Processing Framework (JDPF) helps you in the definition, generation and execution of standard and custom data processing. JDPF has been designed to be modular and estendable. For these reasons, we decided to implement it in Java™ through OSGi technology which provides a service-oriented, component-based environment for developers and offers standardized ways to manage the software lifecycle.

You can use JDPF for defining your own data analysis procedure reusing already provided modules or developing your own solutions. Briefly, the data processing is performed by 'components' (or nets) that are composed by a pipeline of reusable 'modules' (or blocks). Modules are developed on the top of the JDPF framework. Data flow through the pipeline embedded in suitable data types.

JDPF is an open source project, currently developed and maintained by a small group of people. As our hope is to be able to evolve into a wider community, we welcome collaborations/contributions of all types.
