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.

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 .

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.

In computer science, an application profile is a set of metadata elements, policies, and guidelines defined for a particular application. ref name Dublin Core glossary Application profile cite web title Dublin Core metadata glossary url http dublincore.org documents 2001 04 12 usageguide glossary.shtml A accessdate 2006 06 08 ref The elements may be from one or more element sets, thus allowing a given application to meet its functional requirements by using metadata from several element sets including locally defined sets. 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.
