Combining CORBA and the World-Wide Web in the Stanford Digital Library Project

For example, we have constructed proxies for Web-based repositories, such as Lycos, WebCrawler, and Alta Vista. We also have proxies for Web services that are not repositories, such as ConText, which is Oracle's document summarization tool. Another such service we interface to is InterBib which is our own BibTex/Refer to HTML/Framemaker format converter and document bibliography construction tool.
