Page "Object Management Group" Paragraph 11

At its founding, OMG set out to create the initial Common Object Request Broker Architecture ( CORBA ) standard which appeared in 1991.

As of 31 March 2003, the latest standard is CORBA 3. 0.

OMG has also developed a core set of standards adapting CORBA for embedded and real-time systems.

An implementation of standard CORBA is found in the TANGO software, used in five European particle accelerators ( synchrotrons ).

Implementations of real time CORBA are widely used in control systems in ships and aircraft.
