Abstract
This paper proposes a home network infrastructure based on CORBA as a middleware with client-server configuration. Communication inside the network is designed as an event-oriented communication, by using event channel that defined in OMG event service. By modifying CORBA event channel, several functions are developed for enabling the connection, communication, remote control, remote monitoring, and device management of home appliances. CORBA event channel enables decoupling interface between objects, so asynchronous communication between multiple clients can be developed easily. The proposed design has been tested using CORBA based computer test-bed that equipped with PLC Ethernet and WI-Fi communication. Several functions and services that provided in the design have been tested in order to examine test-bed's performance. Simulation of connection from small number of clients until large number of clients has been made, to measure overall network performance. A linear relation between number of clients and the latency of command delivered by server can be seen from the experiment results within test-bed environment.
