## Introduction
In the ORTE project we are developing communication middleware under the OMG Data Distribution Service (DDS) for Real-Time Systems specification (OMG Document formal/07-01-01). The specification defines a service for efficiently distributing application data between participants in a distributed application.
OpenDDS is an open-source C++ implementation of the Object Management Group's specification "Data Distribution Service for Real-time Systems". OpenDDS is built on the ACE (ADAPTIVE Communication Environment) abstraction layer to provide platform portability. OpenDDS also leverages capabilities of TAO (The ACE Orb), such as its IDL compiler and as the basis of the OpenDDS DCPS Information Repository (DCPSInfoRepo).
