Object Management Group
     
         (OMG) A consortium aimed at setting {standards} in
        {object-oriented programming}.  In 1989, this consortium,
        which included {IBM Corporation}, {Apple Computer Inc.} and
        {Sun Microsystems Inc.}, mobilised to create a
        cross-compatible distributed object standard.  The goal was a
        common binary object with methods and data that work using all
        types of development environments on all types of platforms.
        Using a committee of organisations, OMG set out to create the
        first {Common Object Request Broker Architecture} (CORBA)
        standard which appeared in 1991.  As of February 1998, the
        latest standard is CORBA 2.2.
