specification as it moves through its editing cycles, consult the OMG
Specifications Tutorial.
| Specification Name: |
Additional
Structuring Mechanisms for the OTS |
| Description: |
Provides a low-level
architecture for Workflow Engines, Component Management Middleware, and
other systems used to create advanced transaction implementations.
Attempts to solved the problem of supporting applications that can be very
complex in structure, may take a long time to complete, may contain long
periods of inactivity, and have complex relationships with other
applications. |

| Specification Name: |
Enhanced
View of Time (EVoT) |
| Description: |
The existing CORBA Services Time
Service recognized only one clock, one presumed to represent UTC
(Universal Time Coordinated). EVoT 1.x introduced a generalized
Clock interface to represent clocks with differing characteristics. Each
clock is capable of providing a readout of time and is characterized by a
set of properties.
EVoT 2.0, submitted as an RFC, is a revised and
upgraded version of the EVoT v1.2. This specification fixes some issues of
the previous specification and introduces new features. The changes
introduced were motivated by the experience matured in several projects
which relied on the EVoT v1.2 for delivering high performance and highly
available time services in application domains such as Air Traffic Control
(ATC) Systems and Command/Control Systems. As its predecessors, EVoT 2.0
leaves the specification of CORBA Time Service unchanged. |
