Distributed computing, driven by industry ‘hype‘, has raised expectations of highly functional systems, delivered at reasonable cost, solving the majority of computing problems.This paper will investigate how closely distributed computing technologies, conveniently termed ‘middleware‘, have developed to meet these expectations. The status of current standards, such as CORBA and DCE, will be reviewed. The review will range from a discussion of the standards in terms of functionality, IIOP for example, to the de facto standard offerings from Microsoft such as DCOM. The expected evolution path in terms of convergence or divergence of standards and technologies will be examined.The role of current technologies as they are being applied to the telecommunications industry will be investigated, presenting a view finally on how these technologies, sufficiently matured, may be applied to the telecommunications networks of the future.
