Editorial Reviews

Review

'... stands out as a very good introduction to the practical and effective use of distributed objects and CORBA ... recommended as an excellent practitioner's guide to an interesting and very complex field.' Jon Holt, Computing and Control Engineering Journal

'The writing is clear and concise and the examples are well chosen and get the point across as quickly and efficiently as possible ... a useful book for getting an overview of distributed systems architecture and what CORBA can bring to it.' The Journal of the ACCU

Product Description

Distributed Object Architectures with CORBA is a guide to designing software comprised of distributed components. While it is based on OMG's Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA) standard, the principles also apply to architecture built with other technology (such as Microsoft's DCOM). As ORB products evolve to incorporate new additions to CORBA, the knowledge and experience required to build stable and scalable systems is not widespread. With this volume the reader can develop the skills and knowledge that are necessary for building such systems. The book assumes a familiarity with object-oriented concepts and the basics of CORBA. Software developers who are new to building systems with CORBA-based technologies will find this a useful guide to effective development.
