This chapter specifies a General Inter-ORB Protocol (GIOP) for ORB interoperability, which can be mapped onto any connection-oriented
transport protocol that meets a minimal set of assumptions. This chapter also defines a specific mapping of the GIOP, which
runs directly over TCP/IP connections, called the Internet Inter-ORB Protocol (IIOP). The IIOP must be supported by conforming
networked ORB products regardless of other aspects of their implementation. Such support does not require using it internally;
conforming ORBs may also provide bridges to this protocol.
