Benchmarking various Java-based middleware

Hi,

We are pleased to announce you the following experimentation report: 

Title: Benchmarking the Round-Trip Latency of
       Various Java-Based Middleware Platforms

Abstract:

Nowadays, distributed Java-based applications could be built on top of
a plethora of middleware technologies such as Object Request Brokers
(ORB)
like CORBA and Java RMI, Web Services, and component-oriented platforms 
like EJB or CCM. Choosing the right technology fitting with application 
requirements is driven by various criteria such as economic costs, 
available features, performance, etc.

The main contribution of this paper is to present an experience report
on the design and implementation of a simple benchmark to evaluate the
round-trip latency of various Java-based middleware platforms.
Empirical results and analysis are discussed on a large set of widely
available implementations including various ORB (Java RMI, Java IDL, 
ORBacus, JacORB, OpenORB, and Ice), Web Services projects (Apache 
XML-RPC and Axis), and component-oriented platforms (JBoss, JOnAS, 
OpenCCM, Fractal, ProActive).
