Overview

This is a book about the dramatic advantages to be gained from applying object-orientation to client-server systems,describing a new approach to structuring application software. The author shows how business sized objects (CBOs),rather than applications,are the best 'shape' for the 1990s and result in both ease of programming and business benefits. The reader will therefore be shown how to make the most of client-server technology by reevaluating the design of application level and system level code.

An innovative look at how businesses can benefit from applying object-orientation to client/server systems. As well as focusing on the creation of software in the form of CBOs, the book clearly explains the enabling layer of "middleware" necessary between the operating system and applications.
