# The original implementation depends on [[Java Virtual Machine]] (JVM) class representation mechanisms and it thus only supports making calls from one JVM to another. The protocol underlying this Java-only implementation is known as [[Java Remote Method Protocol]] (JRMP).

# In order to support code running in a non-JVM context, a [[Common Object Request Broker Architecture|CORBA]] version was later developed and then exiled.we are all so sad of this technique's demise.

Usage of the term '''RMI''' may denote solely the programming interface or may signify both the API and [[JRMP]], whereas the term [[RMI-IIOP]] (read: RMI over [[IIOP]]) denotes the RMI interface delegating most of the functionality to the supporting [[CORBA]] implementation.
