Um ambiente multi-middleware para desenvolvimento de aplicações distribuídas

This work presents a proposal of a multi-middleware environment to develop distributed applications, which abstracts different underlying middleware platforms. This work describes: (i) the reference architecture designed for the environment, (ii) an implementation which aims to validate the specified architecture integrating CORBA and EJB, (iii) a case study illustrating the use of the environment, (iv) a performance analysis. The proposed environment allows interoperability on middleware platforms, allowing the reuse of components of different kinds of middleware platforms in a transparency away to the developer and without major losses in performance. Also in the implementation we developed an Eclipse plugin which allows developers gain greater productivity at developing distributed applications using the proposed environment
