From CORBA Common Object Request Broker Architecture Basic Information Track Computational Science Course CPS616 -- Spring Semester 1999. by Geoffrey Fox, Wojtek Furmanski, Nancy McCracken, Chao-Wei Ou, Shrideep Pallickara


1 The GIOP defines a set of message formats and data formatting rules to facilitate ORB - ORB communication.
2 The Common Data Representation (CDR), which is tailored to data types supported by IDL, handles inter-platform issues such as byte ordering and provides the standard for the machine-independent representation.
3 The GIOP specification defines a set of message formats that support all of the ORB request/reply semantics.
4 Also defines format for Interoperable Object References (IOR), created whenever an ORB passes an object reference across ORB's.
