Abstract
In this paper, we present a novel graph-oriented approach for architecting and modeling CORBA-based distributed applications. It provides higher-level abstractions for the architecture description of CORBA-based distributed applications. In the proposed model, the configuration of a CORBA-based distributed application is described as a logical graph separated from the programming of the constituent components of the application. It also provides more powerful support for dynamic reconfiguration and simplification of component programming.
