Abstract:

The Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA) is becoming a middleware standard for distributed application development, and there are increasing needs in enriching the basic functionalities of CORBA. Whereas mechanisms for persistence, transactions, event channels, etc., have been designed and specified for CORBA, no support is provided to handle object replication. In this paper we discuss the issue of augmenting CORBA with group communication, which is considered an adequate paradigm to handle replication. We distinguish two main approaches: the integration approach and the service approach. We argue that the service approach is more appropriate to CORBA as it preserves the modularity of the architecture. We describe a proposal for a group communication service and discuss some implementations issues. 1 Introduction Increasing needs and interest in distributed technologies have led to the emergence of several object-oriented distributed architectures. One of the most import...
