Abstract
A computing device supports distributed application execution by sending a code module to different remote devices that have different device-specific support for a platform-independent device function, and sending, to at least two of the different remote devices, a platform-independent message indicating an event has occurred in order to trigger each of the at least two of the different remote devices to autonomously select a device-specific function from a plurality of device-specific functions, and execute the different device-specific support for the platform-independent device function. Each of the at least two of the different remote devices comprises an output interface and triggering each of the at least two of the different remote devices to execute the different device-specific support comprises triggering each of the at least two of the different remote devices to use their output interface for outputting differently from each other.
