Abstract

OMG has provided a set of Common Object Services (COS), which help users to build large-scale distributed CORBA applications, but Common Object Services Specifications (COSS) don't contain integrated formal descriptions. Petri-nets are a powerful instrument for modeling, analyzing, and simulating dynamic systems with concurrent and non-deterministic behavior. This paper introduces a high-level Object-oriented extended Petri nets to express the behaviors of individual objects as well as the concurrency between different objects and concurrency internal to an object in the context of CORBA, and gives an example for formal description of CORBA Objects.
