Abstract

A distributed software system (10) includes at least one server component (22) that supports one or more server objects having associated data and at least one client component (24) that is distributed from the server component (22). The client component (24) accesses data associated with one or more of the server objects according to a scheme making it substantially transparent to the client component (24) whether the server component (22) is local to or remote from the client component (24).
