Web software industry, led by an alliance of IBM, Netscape, Oracle and Sun, is now developing new object based infrastructure for Internet and Intranet,typically referred to as the "Object Web" and integrating:
-
remote objects (CORBA, COM),
-
mobile code (Java) and
-
ComponentWare (ActiveX, JavaBeans).

Object Web will probably bring soon the associated software repository, catalog/yellow page and trading services.

We suggest that NHSE should study these new technologies (most notably, CORBA Trading Service to be described) in making decisions on the next steps of the RIB evolution.

Indeed, CORBA is already a de facto industry standard for distributed computing as developed by an open consortium (OMG) of some 700 companies
