Abstract

The concept of autonomous decentralized systems (ADS) which has the characteristics of online maintainability, online expandability and fault-tolerance has been successfully used in many distributed computing domains, such as: factory automation, traffic control, office automation, and nuclear power plants. In order to realize the benefits of object-oriented software development, a framework for ADS application software development based on the Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA), a set of standards for object systems in heterogeneous distributed environments, is presented. In this framework, CORBA is extended and built over ADS system software. A CASE environment for ADS application software development based on CORBA is also presented
