An asynchronous message exchange system on CORBA

Abstract

Data exchange by networks is getting important due to the growing of Internet. One of the popular architectural styles for distributed, loosely-coupled, heterogeneous network systems is a structure based on event generation, observation and notification. Based on the event service and the naming service defined by OMG (Object Management Group), we build an efficient and Internet-scale event-driven data exchange architecture on CORBA. Asynchronous Message Exchange System (AMES) provides asynchronous publish/subscriber communication model and can communicate with legacy systems easily. This system was developed based on Java programming language and Inprise Visibroker for Java product families.
