This paper presents the RMIT Adaptable Platform for Interactive Distributed Design, Customisation and Optimisation (rapidDCO), a CAD/CAE research platform which is an extension of distributed component based gaming technology.
Among the wide variety of sensors and robots that are researched and developed, research and development of middleware and operating system from the viewpoint of software development include RT-Middleware [13] as a common platform that uses a network-distributed component technology.
This article combines the technology of distributed component object model and active directory Service, realized an open test system architecture.
The main achievement is the creation of the Grid Object abstraction, which can be used to represent and access such diverse technologies as Web Services, distributed components and job processing systems.
Distributed components can be created using Common Object Broker Architecture (CORBA), Remote Method Invocation (RMI), or Web Services technologies, which enable components at different geographic locations to communicate.
Grid technologies provide mechanisms for sharing and coordinating the use of diverse resources and thus, enable the creation, from geographically and organizationally distributed components, of virtual computing systems that are sufficiently integrated to deliver the desired qualities of service.
There are also challenges associated with managing large numbers of distributed components.
This paper describes the ECF component technology specifically built for the construction of component-based, distributed embedded systems.
Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) is a recent technology, which aims at replacing traditional methods of remote communications, such as RPC-based Distributed Component Object Model (DCOM).
Distributed component DBMSs such as ORDBMSs are useful because they address requirements that are not served well by traditional distributed systems technologies.
