Abstract

Middleware has emerged as an important architectural component in modern distributedsystems. Its role is to offer users a high-level, platform-independent programming model(object-oriented or component-based) and to hide problems of distribution. Examples of keymiddleware platforms include CORBA, DCOM, .NET, and the Java-based series of technologies (RMI, Jini, and EJB).
