This paper describes a framework that employs Java and mobile objects to provide an efficient, parallel-computing environment in a heterogeneous, scalable computing cluster. The framework consists of migratable active objects performing computational tasks and static objects for managing them. The p

β¦ Synopsis
System development using Java and distributed object technology (DOT) is becoming common, and can become the standard way of doing network computing in the near future. The performance of DOTs is crucial in high-performance network computing systems. In this paper, the performance of popular DOTs for Java is evaluated in a common environment employing the fastest available PCs and 100 Mbit/s Ethernet. We evaluate HORB, Java RMI, Voyager, two commercial CORBA IIOP implementations, and Distributed COM. For comparison a Java socket version and a C socket version are also evaluated. To represent the characteristics of the DOT, the performance of primitive object operations including remote object creation, remote method call, transferring arrays of objects and transferring large numerical data is measured and evaluated. No DOT won all benchmarks, but HORB showed very good performance for most benchmarks.

## Abstract Objectβoriented languages, such as Java, encourage the use of many small objects linked together by field references, instead of a few monolithic structures. While this practice is beneficial from a program design perspective, it can slow down program execution by incurring many pointer
Speech coding is a basic technique that is indispensable to multimedia and personal communications, which require digital coding of the speech signal and information compression. Up to the present, the quality of the speech coding method has been examined by subjective measures, where test subjects
In this paper are presented the method and results of a subjective evaluation, which was conducted in order to select a new speech codec for the Inmarsat mini-M system. The mini-M system is designed to provide the next generation of global, notebook-sized satellite terminals for transportable, land-
