From Modular to Distributed Architectures: Centaur and Smeci Experiments
Abstract
In this report we point out the reasons that lead us to distribute modular applications, why we think that modularity is a critical step --~but not a final one~-in the design of distributed applications, and how we distribute. We illustrate our ideas with two experiments developed in the \sc Croap and \sc Secoia projects at \tt INRIA\footnoteInstitut National de Recherche en Informatique et Automatique.. They concern respectively \sc Centaur and \sc Smeci tools.
