Abstract

CORBA distributed object technology empowers the Java applet with standards-based connectivity to the world of information and computing services. Introducing CORBA to the Java environment means that applets are no longer restricted to simple interaction with the user but are instead capable of taking part in complex interactions with backend services. With CORBA, Java applets transcend the limitations of simple Web browser technology-CORBA-compliant Java objects become the basis for the provision of Internet and Interactive Multimedia Services on a world-scale. This session looks in detail at how CORBA and traditional WWW technology are merged to provide a new application infrastructure for the Web
