distributed component object model
     
         dcom microsoft's extension of their
        component object model com to support objects distributed
        across a network.  dcom has been submitted to the ietf as
        a draft standard.  since 1996, it has been part of windows
        nt and is also available for windows 95.
     
        unlike corba, which runs on many operating systems, dcom
        is currently dec 1997 only implemented by microsoft for
        microsoft windows and by software ag, under the name
        "entirex", for unix and ibm mainframes.  dcom serves
        the same purpose as ibm's dsom protocol.
     
        dcom is broken because it's an object model that has no
        provisions for inheritance, one of the major reasons for
        object oriented programming in the first place.
