SDO model and its standardization activity

Growth of processor and networking technologies are enabling to connect real-world and computer systems through devices and much attention is being paid to the context-aware services. One of the issues to provide services using ubiquitous or pervasive computing is how to connect heterogeneous hardware device and software component to provide services. This paper proposes a new object model named super distributed objects (SDO) for unified management of them. This model has been proposed to OMG1 and it is adopted by standardization in progress.
