Abstract: COM refers to a software framework regardless of the operating system and programming languages. It integrates function-software into applications by plug-and-in mode, which makes the software easy to design, upgrade and maintain. Thus the cost is lowered and the efficiency is raised. This topic discusses COM's structure, implementation ，characteristic and its newly development，also provides a sample of COM's application.
