Description

This work deals with the advantages to be gained from applying object-orientation to client-server systems, describing a new approach to structuring application software. The author shows how business-sized objects (CBOs), rather than applications, are the best "shape" for the 1990s and result in both ease of programming and business benefits. The reader can learn how to make the most of client-server technology by re-evaluating the design of application-level and system-level code.
