Abstract
Methods, system, and articles of manufacture consistent with the present invention provide for remote processing in a client/server system. A client has a first component of a service application and a server has a second component of the service application. The server sends a request to the client to execute the first component. The client initiates execution of the first component based on the received request. After initiating execution of the first component, the client instructs the server to initiate execution of the second component. Upon termination of execution of the second component, the server sends a completion indicator to the client indicating that the second component has terminated execution. The client terminates execution of the first component responsive to receipt of the completion indicator.
