Event channels in the CORBA Common Object Services specification are an
abstraction designed to provide asynchronous event delivery and
notification for distributed object-oriented programs. However, the
COS specification leaves open a variety of event channel implementation
and optimization options. This report examines and evaluates possible
options for implementing event channels. To provide additional requirements
and drive the discussion it examines the manner in which event channels
might be used to implement an online distributed monitoring and steering
system.
