Several DCE vendors will be demonstrating DCE solutions for Mission and Business-critical enterprise computing. These demos will highlight DCE's role as an embracing framework for integrating heterogenous solutions to the problems of Distributed Computing. In addition, the vendors will demonstrate "classic" models of DCE multi-vendor interoperability by showing different vendor DCE implementations interoperating in the same DCE cell.
The Demonstration area will be open Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday morning. Demos will be available whenever meeting sessions are not in progress, i.e. during breakfast, lunch, breaks between sessions and the evening reception on Monday.
Please check back for details on individual demos. This page will be updated as new information becomes available.

- Digital DCE Toolkit
DIGITAL's DCE Toolkit providing a collection of PROVEN tools and documentation to accelerate development of robust DCE-based distributed business applications. The DCE Toolkit has been developed over many years of DCE consulting and application implementations. Making DCE easier to use is the primary design goal for the DCE Toolkit.
- Call Center Demonstration
The Call Center Demonstration highlights using DCE and the DIGITAL DCE Toolkit from a security, high availability, and application management perspective. While not shown on floor, the demonstration as well as the DCE Toolkit, shows industry leading NT/UNIX integration that demonstrates portability and interoperability.
- IntraVerse
IntraVerse is a complete authorization solution for corporate Web, client/server, and legacy applications, with support for both public key authentication and DCE lightweight client authentication with NetSEAT. Through centralized management of Web resources and applications, IntraVerse provides single sign-on capabilities for the corporate Web space. IntraVerse provides end-to-end security for legacy applications over geographically dispersed Intranets. IntraVerse is the only solution to provide security to any tier in multi-tiered applications. Its authorization API allows all developers to take advantage of IntraVerse authorization.
- DCE Cell Manager
DCE Cell Manager is the de facto standard suite of tools for simplifying DCE management. DCE Cell Manager provides centralized management of distributed networks by spanning the various DCE administrative facilities and combining their functionality into a single coordinated tool set. DCE Cell Manager's graphical user interface allows administrators to analyze the state of local or remote DCE cells and respond appropriately. This graphical interface allows administrators to view available data and perform functions without having to know specific DCE syntax on multiple platforms.
- IntraVerse and PKI Integration
IntraVerse integrates with PKI to provide an authorization framework for public key authentication. The architecture is based on a union of X.509 and DCE technologies. The method for joining the two technologies lies in the use of Cyrptographic Message Syntax, which establilshed the identity of the user if the user is capabile of signing e-mail.
- NetCrusader Trading Demo
Gradient’s Wall Street Trading Demo was developed to present a real-life example of Web-based security in a robust, real-time environment. The Web-based trading application was developed using NetDynamics; uses Entrust Public-Key Infrastructure for authorization and encryption; uses smart cards for digital storage of public-key certificates; and uses NetCrusader cards for authorization and management of users, groups, and access privileges.
- PKI/DCE
Gradient will also demonstrate its integration of Public-Key Infrastructure (PKI) with PC-DCE middleware for the high-volume desktop. A draft specification for PKI/DCE integration was announced in June, the result of a joint effort between Gradient, the Securities Industry Middleware Council, The Open Group, and other technology vendors.
