Abstract

The paper discusses the performance of TINA (Telecommunications Information Networking Architecture). The TINA architecture allows both multiple service vendors and multiple network providers. It is developed by a consortium which includes network operators and telecommunication and computer equipment suppliers. The foundation of TINA is object orientation and distributed computing. A computational object (CO) is an abstraction that encapsulates data and processing. Applications in TINA consist of COs, that interwork with each other. The COs can reside on different physical nodes in the network. The distributed processing environment (DPE) hides the physical distribution of COs
