Abstract

This paper presents a quantitative evaluation of the temporal behavior of object-oriented programs implemented using different programming environments. The main focus of the evaluation is the real-time properties and the overhead caused by each layer of the underlying communication architecture, in order to verify the suitability of those environments for developing distributed real-time object-oriented systems. In the current state of the work, Java/RMI running over Windows 95 and AO/C++ running over QNX OS are compared. An extension of the comparison to include DCOM/Windows95, DCOM/Windows NT and ObjecTime/Windows NT is under development.
