1 Need Flexibility of HTTP/RMI/COM/CORBA with performance of systems like MPI
2 Can use compiler or runtime libraries to map in application (tier 3) which gives greatest performance
3 More flexible is to map at server (tier 2) when you can access functionality of all mapped protocols
4 NPAC is building JWORB which is a Java Web server which can bridge the Web and CORBA protocols
  • JWORB will support RTI and so allow one to build Web Tools for FMS/IMT DoD communities
  • WebFlow can become an HLA Programming Environment
