Middleware News Brief (MNB) features news and technical information about Open Source middleware technologies.
This middleware-focused SETT article provides an introduction to Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA), an open specification for the design and implementation of distributed, object-oriented computing systems.
Unlike Java Remote Method Invocation (RMI), which is is designed specifically for distributed applications written in Java, CORBA allows interoperability among distributed application components written in various programming languages.
Software Engineering Tech Trends (SETT) is a regular publication featuring emerging trends in software engineering.
