These CD-ROMs are a seriesof
3 volumes that provide a comprehensive multimedia referenceon
an important distributed computing technology. Throughout theseries,
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 ona
stand-alone basis or as a complete set, consists of the followingCD-ROMs:
Volume One: Introduction to CORBA, Volume Two: BasicCORBA,
Volume Three: Advanced CORBA.
Volume One: Introduction to CORBA

- OMG -- Object Management
Group
- OMA -- Object Management
Architecture
- CORBA -- Common Object
Request Broker Architecture
In Volume One, we put CORBAinto
perspective by examining the organization that sponsors it(the
Object Management Group) and the architecture within whichit fits
(the Object Management Architecture). In addition, wegive an overview
of the Common Object Request Broker Architectureitself, examining
exactly what the technical challenges are thatCORBA seeks to address.

- The Implementation Repository

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

In the third volume, AdvancedCORBA,
we discuss the more advanced CORBA topics, including theInterface
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--whichis
why we've elected to devote an entirely separate CR-ROM tothese
topics.
