For the purposes of this study we divided middleware into three categories

  • CORBA
  • COM/DCOM
  • All other

Interpretations

  • Military/Aerospace is the biggest user of CORBA in

embedded applications

  • COM/DCOM is most prevalent in the Industrial

Automation market

  • Industrial automation is also the biggest market for all
  • ther kinds of middleware with Telecom/Datacom being

the second biggest market

  • From other data, it seems that many customers are looking

for someone to deliver a complete end to end solution indicating that vendors of CORBA products should team with those developing the solution.
