COMDEX Internet & Object World Frankfurt '97
Panel to Analyze Distributed Object Computing standards

Frankfurt -- October 1997. Will it be ActiveX, JAVA or CORBA? Which
technology will have a better chance to become a standard for the 
next generation of distributed computing? 

With the provocative title  
"Distributed Object Standards... Will There be Two?", 
a keynote panel of top IT industry executives will discuss these issues
at 
COMDEX Internet & Object  World Frankfurt '97.

Scheduled for October 9, from 11:00-12.30, the panel moderated by
Professor Roberto Zicari, Chair of the Advisory Board, will include
Patricia Dock, IBM, David Black, Chief Scientist The Open Group,
Peter Mossack, Vice President Software AG, Dr. Richard Soley, CTO Office
of
the President, Object Management Group, and Richard Weir, Chief of
Staff of Corporate Technology Novell Inc.

The keynote will be open to all attendees of COMDEX Internet & Object
World Frankfurt (October 7-10, 1997, Sheraton Conference Center,
Frankfurt Airport).

"Objects are increasingly becoming the foundation technology for most
of today's mission critical software applications. The majority of such
applications are distributed by nature. It is therefore of great
importance that the distribution of objects among networks and 
platforms rely on a sound and accepted standard", 
says Prof. Roberto Zicari, Chair of the Advisory Board and responsible
for 
the design of the COMDEX Internet & Object World Frankfurt '97
conference.  
A lack of an industry agreed-upon standard can have a negative
repercussion 
on the booming market for distributed software applications, such as
business 
applications  using the Internet."
