Augmented Reliable Multicast CORBA Event Service ' A Multimedia Middleware

Authors

Abstract

Continuous distributed interactive media applications require QoS-capable middleware platforms, in order to meet stringent requirements in terms of losses, bandwidth and jitter. Existing middleware platforms, such as OMG Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA) do not meet these requirements. The major part of the this paper is dedicated to the proposal, presentation and discussion of a middleware platform ' named Augmented Reliable Multicast CORBA Event Service, ARMS ' developed with the aim to provide quality of service mechanisms for continuous distributed interactive medium support.
