Charles White
(June, 1998): Our product [ed: http://www.blackwhite.com] Object/LM can handle these tasks. It is (the only) an implementation of the CORBA Licensing Service and has been implemented for both Orbix and Visibroker.

It handles postage stamp (# of uses) and gas style (length of time) metering, plus authentication, authorization and encryption.
