| Abstract | Development of heterogeneous distributed systems require to address issues such as interconnection and interoperability, arising from the integration of various autonomous components. Object technologies, such as Object Request Broker, provide tools for solving these issues. However, the languages used to develop such tools do not provide platform independence and a consistent graphical user interface. Distributed computing language like Java comes bundled with these additional features. The thesis demonstrates how the union of Java and Object Request Broker technology result in providing a natural abstraction of distributed components, comprising of applications(programs) and data(files and databases), in heterogeneous autonomous distributed information systems. The thesis is applied in a case study on integration of AIT's autonomous database systems such as Inventory, Student Bursary, Registry, and Housing systems. |
