Real-Time CORBA Middleware Whitepaper - OpenFusion RTOrb Overview

Delivering the Benefits of Java™ technology to the world of Real-Time distributed object computing

PrismTech, a leading provider of productivity tools and middleware, is pleased to announce the availability of its new OpenFusion RTOrb Java™ Edition Whitepaper.

Distributed middleware conforming to the Object Management Group’s (OMG’s) language-neutral CORBA specification is well established as a technology for integrating diverse systems and is used extensively for mission and business critical applications in many industry sectors such as defense, telecommunications and manufacturing. With the publication of the Real-Time CORBA Specification, the OMG extended the benefits of CORBA to the Real-Time domain. However, up until very recently developers of Real-Time CORBA middleware systems have been forced to implement their applications in traditional programming languages such as C, C++ and Ada which can support the temporal constraints of Real-Time systems.

This whitepaper presents an overview of PrismTech’s OpenFusion RTOrb Java™ Edition. OpenFusion RTOrb Java™ Edition is the first Real-Time Java™ ORB supporting the new Real-Time Specification for Java™ (RTSJ). Unlike many other Real-Time ORBs, OpenFusion RTOrb Java™ Edition also includes enterprise level functionality and is therefore uniquely positioned to provide a single unified solution for different needs and uses, supporting both “hard” Real-Time systems and enterprise level business applications with a single ORB.

The whitepaper is available for download from PrismTech’s website in the whitepaper downloads section.
