Foil 105 Java and Approaches to Distributed Objects

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
Within the Sun philosophy of '100% Java', distributed objects can be developed using RMI interconnect. However, the rest of the industry tries to protect their C++ investments while converting to Java in new applications.
Hence, in parallel with Java development, the Web industry explores now the linkage of Java with CORBA based distributed object technologies which offer an full C++/Java interoperability.
CORBA supports cross-language remote object invocation as well as IIOP (Internet Inter-ORB Protocol) based interoperability between object brokers from various vendors.
Java is a wonderful language with which to develop object brokers
