In computing , the term composite application expresses a perspective of software engineering that defines an application built by combining multiple existing functions into a new application. The technical concept can be compared to Mashup web application hybrid mashups . However, composite applications use business sources e.g., existing modules or even Web services of information, while mashups usually rely on web based, and often free, sources. It is wrong to assume that composite applications are by definition part of a service oriented architecture SOA . Composite applications can be built using any technology or architecture. A composite application consists of functionality drawn from several different sources. The components may be individual selected functions from within other applications, or entire systems whose outputs have been packaged as business functions, modules, or web services. Composite applications often incorporate orchestration computers orchestration of local application logic to control how the composed functions interact with each other to produce the new, derived functionality.

VS.71 .aspx Microsoft Developer Network page on application domains Category Software architecture ...In Microsoft s Common Language Runtime CLR , an application domain is a mechanism similar to a process computing process in an operating system used to isolate executed software application s from one another so that they do not affect each other. Each application domain has its own virtual address space which Scope programming scopes the resources for the application domain using that address space . Properties A CLR application domain is contained within an operating system process. A process may contain many application domains. Application domains have isolation properties similar to that of operating system processes Multiple Thread computer science threads can exist within a single application domain. The application in a domain can be stopped without affecting the state of another domain in the same process. A fault or exception handling exception in one domain does not affect an application in another domain or crash the entire process that hosts the domains. Configuration information is part of a domain s scope, not the scope of the process. Each domain can be assigned different security access levels. Code in one domain cannot directly access code in another. In this sense, the CLR is like a mini operating system. It runs a single process that contains a number of sub processes, or application domains. The advantage of application domains is that running multiple application domains requires fewer resources, such as memory, than running multiple operating system processes. Inter domain communications Direct communication cannot be achieved across application domains. However, application domains can still talk to each other by passing object computer science objects ... through a proxy application domain bound objects .

Unreferenced date December 2009 Application sharing is an element of remote access , falling under the collaborative software umbrella, that enables two or more users to access a shared application or document from their respective computers simultaneously in real time. Generally, the shared application or document will be running on a host computer, and remote access to the shared content will be provided to other users by the host user. Granting access Access is typically granted in one of three ways, depending on the architecture of the application sharing software. 1. If the software allows the shared content to be accessed from the web, the host user will usually define and provide a username password combination to the remote users he she wishes to grant access to they can then enter the log in information on the appropriate website and access the shared material. One example of software that features application sharing in this manner is Qnext . 2. If the software is required on both ends to access the shared content, granting access will be governed by the mechanisms of that particular software, but will usually require some sort of user authentication as well. One example of software that features application sharing in this manner is MSN Messenger . 3. The shared content being an application or entire desktop can be accessed using a permission based software approach.

no footnotes date January 2012 An Agile Application is the result of Service oriented architecture Service Oriented Architecture and Agile software development Agile Development paradigms. An Agile Application is distinguished from average applications in that it is a Loose coupling loosely coupled set of services with a decoupled Orchestration computers orchestration layer and it is easily modified to address changing business needs and it is scalable by design. Using Agile software development Agile Applications development paradigms , a set of services can be built to address business specific functional components. These services can be exposed using any one of the standard communication protocols including web services. A well designed Agile Application will standardize on a common communication protocol and a common data model. The services can then be orchestrated using a decoupled layer to implement business logic. There are many tools by different vendors in the industry that can support the orchestration layer Citation needed date June 2011 . The decoupled nature of an Agile Application permits it to accommodate fault tolerance and scalability . For example, scalability is addressed through focusing the attention of the Quality assurance QA team in the set of services that are causing the bottleneck as opposed to trying to solve scalability for the entire system which can be a much bigger problem. Similarly, fault tolerance can be achieved through deploying multiple instances of a service. If one service fails, another instance can pick up the load. For stateless services, this can lead to continuous availability. Following the Agile Development paradigm, each unit of development cycle can be focused on a single service. Furthermore, multiple of these development cycles can run in parallel leading to faster development completion. Agile is a means of responsiveness based on customization rather than stable production or standardization. References http www.iste.co.uk ... more details

The application software along with Jeos Just Enough Operating System JeOS or juice is combined inside a virtual machine container in a manner that maximizes the performance of the application. By minimizing the system software to the smallest set of packages required to support the application, the maintenance and administration burden of the virtual application is greatly reduced. By including Application streaming in the design of an application server capable of hosting a Virtual Application, no application specific code need reside on the server at all. Packages of code reside on the server, but the details on how they are to be invoked in order to create the functionality that adds up to the application, gets passed to the server as and when needed. In effect the application does not exist on the server at all. Though clients can still invoke it almost as if it did. The difference being that the incoming request must either include application logic exploiting the code packages on the server , or information on where to locate such logic in a repository.
