In the past decade, the booming of Intet challenges the middleware in three aspects: quality of service,balance of changes and stabilization, and across-Intet integration. This paper presents our work on distributed object computing middleware technology for these challenges, as well as the research and development on StarBus+, which is a CORBA standard-compliant middleware suite with the features such as object request broker supporting multi-* quality of service, component model, and integration with Web Service. This paper comprehensively presents the design and characteristics of StarBns+, and demonstrates how StarBus+ is enhanced to address the challenges of Intet computing through three case studies: inter-enterprise integration over Intet, application evolution through dynamic reconfiguration,and great massive information system building. The paper also suggests some research directions which are important for Intet computing.
