Complete CORBA The Three Volume Series
by Doug Rosenberg and Paul Simonsen


Welcome to Complete CORBA!

"Complete CORBA provides technical and 'how to' information in a timely, concise format...helps to fill the technical abyss that currently exists with regard to distributed computing using CORBA"--Charlie Bowman, Editor, CORBA Development


These CD-ROMs are a series of 6 volumes that provide a comprehensive multimedia reference on an important distributed computing technology. Throughout the series, we examine what CORBA (the Common Object Broker Architecture) is, its history, and how it is extended through various services, facilities and domains.


The Complete CORBA series, which can be purchased and viewed on a stand-alone basis or as a complete set, consists of the following CD-ROMs:

  • Volume One: Introduction to CORBA
  • Volume Two: Basic CORBA
  • Volume Three: Advanced CORBA
  • Volume Four: CORBA Services
  • Volume Five: CORBA Facilities
  • Volume Six: CORBA Domains


Volume One: Introduction to CORBA

  • OMG -- Object Management Group
  • OMA -- Object Management Architecture
  • CORBA -- Common Object Request Broker Architecture


In Volume One, we put CORBA into persepective by examining the organization that sponsors it (the Object Management Group) and the architecture within which it fits (the Object Management Architecture). In addition, we give an overview of the Common Object Request Broker Architecture itself, examining exactly what the technical challenges are that CORBA seeks to address.



Volume Two: Basic CORBA

  • The Static Interfaces
  • Stubs -- The Static Invocation
  • The Static Skeleton
  • Interface Definition Language
  • The ORB Interface
  • The Object Adapter
  • The Implementation Repository

In the second CD-ROM, Basic CORBA, we provice you with a closer look at the static interfaces; Interface Definition Language, The ORB Interface, The Object Adapter, and the Implementation Repository. These interfaces represent the minimum set of elements required to make practical use of CORBA.


Volume Three: Advanced CORBA

  • Interface Repository
  • The Dynamic Interfaces
  • The Dynamic Invocation Interface
  • The Dynamic Skeleton Interface
  • ORB Interoperability

In the third volume, Advanced CORBA, we discuss the more advanced CORBA topics, including the Interface Repository, the Dynamic Interfaces and ORB Interoperability. These elements add a great deal of useful flexibility to CORBA. However, with flexibility comes the price of added complexity--which is why we've elected to devote an entirely separate CR-ROM to these topics.
