This directory contains a number of example applications that
illustrate how to transmit large files using standard CORBA and TAO.
The individual directories contain READMEs on how to run the following
examples:

. SMI_Iterator

  Illustrates how to use the Iterator pattern to download
  large files one chunk at a time using synchronous
  method invocations that are "pulled" by the client
  from the server.

. AMI_Iterator

  Illustrates how to use the Iterator pattern to download
  large files one chunk at a time using asynchronous
  method invocations that are "pulled" by the client
  from the server.

. AMI_Observer

  Illustrates how to use the Observer pattern to download
  large files one chunk at a time using asynchronous
  method invocations that are "pushed" from the server
  to the client.
