Optimizing a CORBA Internet inter-ORB protocol (IIOP) engine for minimal footprint embedded multimedia systems.

To support the quality-of-service (QoS) requirements of embedded multimedia applications off-the-shelf middleware like common object request broker architecture (CORBA) must be flexible, efficient, and predictable. Moreover, stringent memory constraints imposed by embedded system hardware necessitat...
