Although CORBA for instance provides (by definition) most key distributed object services such as persistence, this is not sufficient as we will inevitably mix object models and further these services are still being developed
|
|
So as one part of this course we will discuss "discuss distributed object" and "internet" (software) infrastructure
|
with special attention to issues of naming, registering, looking up (yellow pages) and addressing objects
-
Remember a web page is most common object and every Java program is an object
|
|
We need to contrast classical hierarchy of naming as in DNS and web URL's as implemented in LDAP with much more intriguing dynamic model in Sun's Jini and UCB's Ninja which are suitable for mobile ephemeral objects
