Abstract:
An increasing number of applications are now being developed in a distributed
setting. The main focus of this half-day tutorial is on OMG/CORBA, a widely
recognised middleware standard for heterogeneous and distributed application
integration. The tutorial discusses CORBA's object model and its representation
in the OMG interface definition language (IDL). Programming language bindings
to IDL are discussed; static and dynamic invocations are distinguished
and CORBA services and facilities are sketched. The tutorial closes with
an indication of recent standardisation efforts undertaken by the OMG.
