The document discusses CORBA (Common Object Request Broker Architecture), which is an open distributed object computing infrastructure standardized by the Object Management Group (OMG). CORBA automates many common network programming tasks and uses an Object Request Broker (ORB) to allow clients to remotely invoke methods on objects as if they were local. The key components of CORBA include IDL interfaces, stubs, skeletons, the ORB, and object adapters.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

2. CORBA
• The Common Object Request Broker
Architecture (CORBA) is an open distributed
object computing infrastructure being
standardized by the Object Management Group (
OMG).
• CORBA automates many common network
programming tasks such as object registration,
location, and activation; request demultiplexing;
framing and error-handling; parameter
marshalling and demarshalling; and operation
dispatching.
4. CORBA
• Object Services - These are domain-independent
interfaces that are used by many distributed object
programs. For example, a service providing for the
discovery of other available services is almost always
necessary regardless of the application domain. Two
examples of Object Services that fulfill this role are:
– The Naming Service - which allows clients to find objects
based on names;
– The Trading Service - which allows clients to find objects
based on their properties.
• There are also Object Service specifications for lifecycle
management, security, transactions, and event
notification, as well as many others.
5. CORBA
• Common Facilities - Like Object Service
interfaces, these interfaces are also horizontally-
oriented, but unlike Object Services they are
oriented towards end-user applications.
– An example of such a facility is the Distributed
Document Component Facility (DDCF), a compound
document Common Facility based on OpenDoc.
DDCF allows for the presentation and interchange of
objects based on a document model, for example,
facilitating the linking of a spreadsheet object into a
report document.
6. CORBA
• Domain Interfaces - These interfaces fill roles
similar to Object Services and Common
Facilities but are oriented towards specific
application domains.
– For example, one of the first OMG RFPs issued for
Domain Interfaces is for Product Data Management
(PDM) Enablers for the manufacturing domain. Other
OMG RFPs will soon be issued in the
telecommunications, medical, and financial domains.
7. CORBA
• Application Interfaces - These are interfaces
developed specifically for a given application.
– Because they are application-specific, and because
the OMG does not develop applications (only
specifications), these interfaces are not standardized.
– However, if over time it appears that certain broadly
useful services emerge out of a particular application
domain, they might become candidates for future
OMG standardization.
9. CORBA
• Object - This is a CORBA programming entity that
consists of an identity, an interface, and an
implementation, which is known as a Servant.
• Servant - This is an implementation programming
language entity that defines the operations that support a
CORBA IDL interface. Servants can be written in a
variety of languages, including C, C++, Java, Smalltalk,
and Ada.
• Client - This is the program entity that invokes an
operation on an object implementation. Accessing the
services of a remote object should be transparent to the
caller. Ideally, it should be as simple as calling a method
on an object, i.e., obj->op(args). The remaining
components in Figure 2 help to support this level of
transparency.
10. CORBA
• Object Request Broker (ORB) - The ORB
provides a mechanism for transparently
communicating client requests to target object
implementations.
– The ORB simplifies distributed programming by
decoupling the client from the details of the method
invocations. This makes client requests appear to be
local procedure calls.
– When a client invokes an operation, the ORB is
responsible for finding the object implementation,
transparently activating it if necessary, delivering the
request to the object, and returning any response to
the caller.
11. CORBA
• ORB Interface - An ORB is a logical entity that
may be implemented in various ways (such as
one or more processes or a set of libraries).
– To decouple applications from implementation
details, the CORBA specification defines an abstract
interface for an ORB.
– This interface provides various helper functions such
as converting object references to strings and vice
versa, and creating argument lists for requests made
through the dynamic invocation interface described
below.
12. CORBA
• CORBA IDL stubs and skeletons - CORBA
IDL stubs and skeletons serve as the glue
between the client and server applications,
respectively, and the ORB.
– The transformation between CORBA IDL definitions
and the target programming language is automated by
a CORBA IDL compiler.
– The use of a compiler reduces the potential for
inconsistencies between client stubs and server
skeletons and increases opportunities for automated
compiler optimizations.
13. CORBA
• Dynamic Invocation Interface (DII) - This
interface allows a client to directly access the
underlying request mechanisms provided by an
ORB.
– Applications use the DII to dynamically issue
requests to objects without requiring IDL interface-
specific stubs to be linked in.
– Unlike IDL stubs (which only allow RPC-style
requests), the DII also allows clients to make non-
blocking deferred synchronous (separate send and
receive operations) and oneway (send-only) calls.
14. CORBA
• Dynamic Skeleton Interface (DSI) - This is the
server side's analogue to the client side's DII.
– The DSI allows an ORB to deliver requests to an
object implementation that does not have compile-
time knowledge of the type of the object it is
implementing.
– The client making the request has no idea whether the
implementation is using the type-specific IDL
skeletons or is using the dynamic skeletons.
15. CORBA
• Object Adapter - This assists the ORB with
delivering requests to the object and with
activating the object.
– More importantly, an object adapter associates object
implementations with the ORB.
– Object adapters can be specialized to provide support
for certain object implementation styles (such as
OODB object adapters for persistence and library
object adapters for non-remote objects).
16. Building CORBA Applications
• Steps to build a CORBA application:
1. Define the remote interface
2. Compile the remote interface
3. Implement the server
4. Implement the client
5. Start the applications
17. Building CORBA Applications
• Define the remote interface
– Define the interface for the remote object using the
OMG's Interface Definition Langauge (IDL).
• Compile the remote interface
– Compile the IDL and map the interface to the
designated language.
• Implement the server
– Use the skeletons it generates to develop the server
application.
– Implement the methods of the remote interface.
– The server code includes a mechanism to start the
ORB and wait for invocation from a remote client.
18. Building CORBA Applications
• Implement the client
– Use the stubs generated to develop the client
application.
– The client code builds on the stubs to start its ORB,
look up the server using the name service, obtain a
reference for the remote object, and call its method.
• Start the applications
– Start the name service, then start the server, then run
the client.
