Abstract

A method and system are described which allow programs to become dynamically reconfigurable without programmer intervention. This means that the programs can be dynamically distributed among multiple computers within a computer network without modification to the source code of the programs running on the system. In addition, the method and system described allow an administrator of the system to specify conditions under which reconfiguration is to occur without modification to the source text of the program to be dynamically reconfigured.
