We are particularly : interested in the evaluation of existing distributed object systems : and how they are used to design and to implement large scale industrial : distributed applications. We are seeking theoretical as well as : practical papers addressing innovative issues related to distributed : objects. : : TOPICS OF INTEREST : : Distributed and mobile agents. Design patterns for distributed object : design. Database services, in particular persistency, transaction, query. : and replication services. Integration of distributed object and Web : technologies. Integration with database systems and interfaces. Methodologies : to develop distributed object applications. Reintegration of legacy systems : in DO environments . Design of CORBA, COM- and Java-based broker applications. : Multimedia distributed objects. Multicast protocols for distributed objects. : Object caching. Reliability, fault-tolerance and recovery. Real-time ORB : middleware. Reports on Best Practice. Security. Specification and enforcement : of quality of service. Standardization of distributed objects. ... : : PROGRAM COMMITTEE : : Gustavo Alonso (ETH, Zurich). Bill Appelbe (RMIT, Australia).
