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.

Unreferenced date August 2007 A workflow application is a software application which automates, at least to some degree, a process or processes. The processes are usually business related, but it may be any process that requires a series of steps that can be automated via software . Some steps of the process may require human intervention, such as an approval or the development of custom text, but functions that can be automated should be handled by the application. Advanced applications allow users to introduce new components into the operation. For example, consider a purchase order that moves through various departments for authorization and eventual purchase. The order may be moved from department to department for approval automatically. When all authorizations are obtained, the requester of the purchase order is notified and given the authorization. A workflow process may involve constant change and update. For example, the normal approver of purchase orders may be on vacation, in which case, the application will request approval from alternate approvers. Development A workflow application can be developed with any general purpose programming language , but specialized workflow languages also exist. These usually come with an associated graphical notation such as Business Process Modeling Notation BPMN , but some are textual or XML based. Specialized languages that can be used for workflow definition in this way include XPDL YAWL SCUFL The above languages are based on XML syntax while suitable for manipulation by software, they are difficult for non technical people the ones who have a deep understanding of specific business scientific processes to work with. Therefore, their use is generally augmented by the use of graphical notations that enable the creation of flowchart like diagrams that are easier for humans to develop and interpret the creation of such diagrams ... can be called by an existing software application as a Web service.

For example, a given application might choose a subset of the Dublin Core that meets its needs, or may include elements from the Dublin Core, another element set, and several locally defined elements, all combined in a single schema. An application profile is not complete without documentation that defines the policies and best practices appropriate to the application Advantages Defines an application appropriate set of properties in a public and communicable manner. This permits the building of loosely coupled systems i.e. independent of each others detailed specification that still offer powerful capabilities. Disadvantages Narrow application scope, which may limit a profile s widespread applicability and also limits the likely synergy from re use of tools from other projects outside that scope. Compared to the Dublin Core refinement approach where a core property set may be made more specific, in a backwards compatible manner , use of application profiles requires that applications must at least recognise these profiles and their roots. Even if the profile is based simply on Dublin Core, which the application already understands, this is of no use unless the application also recognises that this profile is treatable as Dublin Core.
