The purpose of this post is to illustrate the possibility for autonomic computing inherent in Request Based Distributed Computing (RBDC). This is how I summarised RBDC in a recent post: Request Based Distributed Computing is a small extension of the http protocol and notion of server, proxy and client. Rich Internet Applications, SOA architected...

This Java-specific implementation lends support to the general applicability of Request Based Distributed Computing (RBDC) for client centric distributed computing. WADI is an acronym of ‘WADI Application Distribution Infrastructure’. WADI started life as a solution to the problems surrounding the distribution of...
