| We proposed an evolutionary process of developing user-friendly visual component based authoring tools for HPCC by integrating the current C++ and coming Java based parallel object technologies via CORBA with the JavaBeans based visual component technologies. |
| Our proposed process starts from the existing parallel C++ object libraries and provides HP-ORBlet based interoperability with Java. |
| Next, the CORBA/Enterprise Beans based server/backend side component technologies are incorporated in the Java server and adapted to the HPCC needs within the emergent Java Frameworks for Computing. |
| Finally, the BeanBox based front-end visual tools provided by the industry are being linked via client-side ORBlets with the tier-2+3 components to offer visual authoring of HP-Components and HPCC applications. |
