Abstract

This paper presents an implementation in the Ada 95 [10] language of an object oriented architecture in order to communicate requests to remote objects in a common way. Our purpose is to provide the Ada language with interoperability between heterogeneous systems and also with distribution transparency. In this context, we have selected Corba (Common Object Request Broker Architecture and Specifications)
