From General NPAC Foils-B starting June97(PowerPoint) General Research -- June-December 97. by Geoffrey C. Fox
Javabean
  • Part of the Java 1.1 enhancements defining design frameworks (particular naming conventions) and inter Javabean communication mechanisms for Java components with standard (Bean box) or customized visual interfaces (property editors). Enterprise Javabeans are Javabeans enhanced for server side operation with capabilities such as multi user support. Javabeans are Java's component technology and in this sense are more analogous to ActiveX than either COM or CORBA. However Javabeans augmented with RMI can be used to build a "pure Java" distributed object model.
RMI (Remote Method Invocation)
  • A somewhat controversial part of Java 1.1 in the enterprise framework which specifies the remote access to Java objects with a generalization of the UNIX RPC (Remote Procedure Call).
