OMG Announces Program for Workshop on Distributed
Object Computing
for Real-time and Embedded Systems
July 10-13, 2006; Washington, DC USA
Needham, MA, USA - April 25, 2006 - The Object Management Group™ (OMG™),
today announced the program for its Workshop on Distributed Object
Computing for Real-time and Embedded Systems, to be held July 10-13, 2006
in Washington, DC, USA. The workshop is co-sponsored by PrismTech (www.prismtechnologies.com).
The full program and registration details may be found online at http://www.omg.org/rte-pr.
Software standards for real-time and embedded systems must support
stringent resource, reliability, and timing requirements. The challenge is
particularly acute for middleware standards, which have to cope with
performance and reliability variations of the underlying infrastructure.
OMG provides a widely-used set of standards for this purpose, including
the Data Distribution Service (DDS) middleware standard, for the
predictable distribution of real-time data with minimal overhead, and the
Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA®), with support for
real-time scheduling, fault tolerance and resource-constrained systems.
OMG's Unified Modeling Language™ (UML®) standard supports real-time
analysis and design, and its Model Driven Architecture® (MDA®) is used
to create applications from models.
Following the success of past real-time and embedded workshops, OMG is
hosting this workshop as a forum for standards users, researchers and
implementers to share their experiences. Presentations and discussions at
the workshop will also help shape future of OMG standards.

About The OMG
With well-established standards covering software from design and
development, through deployment and maintenance, and extending to
evolution to future platforms, the Object Management Group (OMG) supports
a full-lifecycle approach to enterprise integration which maximizes ROI,
the key to successful IT. OMG's Modeling standards, the basis for the
MDA®, include the Unified Modeling Language™ (UML®) and Common
Warehouse Metamodel (CWM™). CORBA®, the Common Object Request Broker
Architecture, is OMG's standard open platform with hundreds of millions of
deployments running today. Headquartered in Needham, MA, USA, the Object
Management Group is an international, open membership, not-for-profit
computer industry specifications consortium. More information about OMG
can be found at www.omg.org.
