Off-the-shelf software component reuse in a cloud computing environment

Abstract:

A computer-implemented distributed data processing method for a software application that includes no code that targets a distributed data processing system, the method including in a first process executing a first software component on a first computer, establishing a reference to at least a second software component resident on a second computer, establishing a handler in a second process executing on the second computer, determining that the first process is attempting to invoke a routine of the second software component based on the handler, and transferring data from the first process to the second process.
