Distributed CORBA Objects have found their killer app. It's the Object Web-or the marriage of distributed objects and the Internet. The major computing companies-including Sun, JavaSoft, IBM, Netscape, Apple, Oracle, BEA, and HP-have chosen CORBA IIOP as their common way to connect distributed objects across the Internet and intranets. Consequently, CORBA is about to become as ubiquitous as TCP/IP. Instant CORBA is your quick guide to understanding this revolutionary new technology. If you're in a real hurry, this book even provides a condensed tour that will make you CORBA literate in four hours or less. Written in a friendly and witty style, this comprehensive book covers: * The Object Web-or how CORBA/IIOP, Java, and the Internet are coming together * Everything you need to know about a CORBA 2.0 ORB * The 15 CORBA Object Services-including Transactions, Trader, Security, Naming, Events, Time, and Collections. These services provide the next step in the evolution of distributed objects. * CORBA's Dynamic Object Facilities such as Callbacks, Dynamic Invocations, Object Introspection, and the Interface Repository * Next-generation ORB technology-including CORBA 3.0's. Messaging, Pass-by-Value, and Server-Side Frameworks * The marriage of CORBA with MOM and TP Monitors * Forthcoming CORBA attractions such as mobile agents, shippable places, and the business object framework * Products such as Iona's OrbixWeb, Netscape/Visigenic's VisiBroker, and Sun's NEO/JOE. The authors have written many best-selling books, including The Essential Distributed Objects Survival Guide and The Essential Client/Server Survival Guide, Second Edition, which won Software Development's Jolt Award for the best book of 1994, in its first edition. Their most recent book is Client/Server Programming with Java and CORBA.

"Java Programming with CORBA" - jetzt erscheint der Bestseller in der 3. aktualisierten und erweiterten Auflage. Anerkannte Experten zeigen anhand fortgeschrittener Techniken und Beispielen aus der Praxis, wie man einfache und komplexe Javaprogramme mit CORBA entwirft. Zunächst geben sie einen kurzen Überblick über CORBA, Java, Oject Request Brokers (ORBs) und EJB Komponenten und erläutern dann, wie man diese Technologien einsetzt, um komplette Java-Anwendungen zu entwickeln. Diese Neuauflage wurde um 50% neues Material erweitert, um den Neuerungen der kürzlich erschienenen 3. Version von CORBA Rechnung zu tragen. Topaktuelle Themen, wie z.B. Portabel Object Adaptor (POA), Remote Method Innovation (RMI) over IIOP und EJB werden ausführlich diskutiert. Mit einer Fülle detaillierter Codebeispiele. Der unverzichtbare Leitfaden für jeden Java-Entwickler und -Programmierer.

This book reports on the concepts and ideas discussed at the well attended ICRA2005 Workshop on "Principles and Practice of Software Development in Robotics", held in Barcelona, Spain, April 18 2005. It collects contributions that describe the state of the art in software development for the Robotics domain. It also reports a number of practical applications to real systems and discuss possible future developments.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 20th International Symposium on Computer and Information Sciences, ISCIS 2005, held in Istanbul, Turkey in October 2005.
