Abstract
Since its first publication in 1991, the CORBA Specification has provided abstractions for distributed programming that have served as the basis for a variety of distributed systems. Despite its original flexibility and applicability to various environments, however, CORBA has had to evolve to remain viable as a standard for distributed object-oriented applications. This article explains several new features that are being added to CORBA as part of its continuing evolution towards version 3.0. They are the Portable Object Adapter (POA), support for Asynchronous Method Invocation (AMI), and support for passing Objects By Value (OBV). These new features further extend the suitability of CORBA for the development of diverse distributed systems.Keywords
