1 | The new emergent Object Web framework includes Web servers in the middleware, Java applets in the front-end and Java ORBs on both sides. |
2 | Client-side ORB (or ORBlet) can be either downloaded as part of the applet, or resident on the client host, or embedded in the browser (as planned by Netscape). |
3 | Applet downloads via HTTP and connects via ORBlet's IIOP to a middleware ORB. This middleware ORB can be either another server or part of the Web server. |
