Domains and dynamic loading: reconciling autonomy and integration

ABSTRACT

My thesis is that the opposition between autonomy and integration is imposed by the choice of an inadequate interaction paradigm. A new paradigm, the Proxy Principle, allows to structure each service according to the most appropriate trade-off, independently from other services, while keeping a uniform style of interaction.
