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
Previous slides illustrated software components involved in enabling remote method invocation for a single object
The next diagram categorizes various objects plugged in and playing on the CORBA bus
The system itself (i.e. ORB vendors) provides a set of base object services the Common Object Services layer and high level facilities
  • facilities are called frameworks in Java
  • horizontal facilities are generally useful
  • vertical facilities are specialized to certain applications
Application objects built by users can refer to CORBA services/facilities as distributed OO libraries
