Design and implementation of the portable object adapter
- The thesis in general deals with CORBA, the Common Object Request Broker Architecture. More specifically, it takes a look at the server-side, where object adapters exist to aid the developer in implementing objects and in dealing with request processing. The new Portable Object Adapter was recently added to the CORBA 2.2 standard. My task was the implementation of the POA in MICO and the examination if (a) the POA specification is sensible and (b) in which areas it improves over the old Basic Object Adapter. After introducing distributed platforms in general and CORBA in particular, the thesis' main two chapters are a detailed abstract examination ("Design") of the POA design and their relization ("Implementation"), highlighting the potential trouble spots, persistence and collocation.
