Describes real-time CORBA's support for thread pools and synchronizers.

Explores features that allow distributed real-time and embedded applications to select protocol properties and to explicitly bind clients to server objects using pre-allocated connections, priority bands, and private connections.

Gives a brief overview of CORBA, then discusses servlets and demonstrates how servlets can communicate with CORBA servers.

Load balancing helps improve system scalability by ensuring that client application requests are distributed and processed equitably across a group of servers. Likewise, it helps improve system dependability by adapting dynamically to system configura...

This column is the first in a series that focuses on the CORBA Component Model (CCM). It first outlines the evolution of programming abstractions from subroutines to modules, objects, and components. Then it describes how this evolution has largely be...

This column discusses a hybrid publisher/subscriber and request/response distribution architecture that uses CCM features to implement stock-quoter example.

Michi Henning argues why this distributed computing technology fell short and what can be learned from it.

This article covers the pitfalls of CORBA.

Explains the low-level protocols used.

Compares CORBA and SOAP. Contains many interesting comments originally made in a thread on the comp.object.corba newsgroup.
