Abstract :
CORBA RPC calling in the current mobile environment is suffering from poor performance and insufficient support of disconnection. This greatly degrades the reliability of services and upsets user´s expectation. To improve the reliability and performance and provide adequate support to involuntary disconnection of mobile clients, RPC Proxy is introduced in this paper. The impact of handoff and disconnection to the RPC Proxy is discussed. The aim of this work is to improve the performance and reliability of CORBA RPC in a mobile environment by minimizing slow and unstable wireless traffic
