Understanding software component technologies: JavaBeans and ActiveX

Abstract

Summary form only given, as follows. In component-based software development (CBSD), reusable software components are assembled within appropriate software architectures. This delivers the promise of large-scale software reuse and has the potential to improve software reliability, time-to-market, maintainability and quality. This tutorial will provide participants with the opportunity to acquire a good understanding of the two leading component technologies: JavaBeans and ActiveX (DCOM), so as to be able to select the right one for their projects.
