  • Architecture for Location Independent CORBA Environments 

    Cunningham, Raymond (Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 1998-09)
    The construction of distributed applications is a complex and time consuming task, which has been addressed by the Object Management Group's Common Object Request Broker Architecture. However implementations of this ...
  • A Framework for Building Customised CORBA ORBs 

    Wiese, Hubertus (Trinity College Dublin. Department of Computer Science, 1998-09)
    Recently, many distributed applications have been based on Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA) compliant middleware. Such distributed computing middleware provides the components of a distributed application ...
  • An Internet Protocol Testing Framework 

    Cashman, John (Trinity College Dublin. Department of Computer Science, 1998-09)
    As the Internet expands and proliferates it gives rise to new technologies that require supporting Internet protocols. Some recent examples include HTTP, POP, IMAP and IIOP. Internet applications are generally based on ...
  • Implementation of the CORBA Event Service in Java 

    Stephens, Paul (Trinity College Dublin. Department of Computer Science, 1998-09)
    The increase need and interest in distributed technology has led to several different types of object orientated middleware. CORBA is being defined by the Object Management Group (OMG) and is the most commonly used ...
  • A Framework Providing Fault Tolerance Using the CORBA Trading Service. 

    MEIER, RENE (Trinity College Dublin. Department of Computer Science, 1998-09)
    This thesis describes a body of research into the fault tolerance problem associated with the use of large scale distributed systems and a partial solution to the problem. Fault tolerance problems arise in such an ...
  • Courseware on the Fly 

    Dillon, Brian J (Trinity College Dublin. Department of Computer Science, 1998-09)
    Third level education is at the moment experiencing a period of rapid change. Innovative teaching methods, in which new technology will figure, are required to enable universities maintain a high standard of education ...
  • Perceptually-Adaptive Collision Detection for Real-time Computer Animation 

    O'SULLIVAN, CAROL ANN (Unversity of Dublin, Trinity College Dublin. Department of Computer Science, 1999)
    The aim of interactive animation systems is to create an exciting and real experience for viewers, to give them a feeling of immersion, of "being there". The tendency in the past has been to attempt to achieve this by ...
  • A Distributed Event System for Use in Mobile Environments 

    Barron, Peter (Trinity College Dublin. Department of Computer Science, 1999-09)
    Recent research into the automation of certain tasks within buildings has been shown to provide a better working environment and also has the potential to make buildings more responsive to the needs of the community at ...
  • Example-Based Machine Translation: An Adaptation-Guided Retrieval Approach 

    Collins, Brona (University of Dublin, Trinity College. Department of Computer Science, 1999-09)
    Translation can be viewed as a problem-solving process where a source language text is transformed into its target language equivalent. A machine translation system, solving the problem from first-principles, requires more ...
  • Using Distributed Technology for Teaching Distributed Systems 

    Thornton, David Willson (Trinity College Dublin. Department of Computer Science, 1999-09)
    Current developments in multimedia and Internet technologies are enabling their wide use as a means for delivering education and training. There is much diversity and no single architecture has yet emerged as the ...
  • Supporting Disconnected Operation in Mobile CORBA 

    Lynch, Niall (Trinity College Dublin. Department of Computer Science, 1999-09)
    CORBA has been used successfully for a number of years as a way of building and connecting distributed applications. Normally this has been in the context of a wired network with static hosts. With recent developments ...
  • A Metadata Driven Approach to Educational Adaptive Hypermedia 

    Connor, Niamh (Trinity College Dublin. Department of Computer Science, 1999-09)
    The objective of this dissertation is to develop a teaching tool which extends the benefits of Web learning by providing increased flexibility for both students and administrators. The dissertation will investigate the ...
  • BeanBag: An Extensible Framework for Describing, Storing and Querying Components 

    O'Reilly, Caroline (Trinity College Dublin. Department of Computer Science, 1999-09)
    When it became obvious that Object Oriented software applications were falling short of their promise of significant software reuse, the software industry began to look at another solution. Hence the interest in Component ...
  • Data Exchange in a Component Based Workflow Environment 

    Fahey, Paul (Trinity College Dublin. Department of Computer Science, 1999-09)
    There is a need to revise existing (successful) software subsystems. One can?t afford to develop a bespoke system, as done previously, so therefore `shrink wrapped solution sets? have to be realised. The problem is how ...
