Abstract
An architecture is described that integrates existing applications in a network-wide system. The architecture follows the new open software paradigm, and defines kernel and application services that collaborati vely solve the tasks of end-users and provide them with an intuitive u ser-interface. This paper describes the message language and the kerne l mechanism for addressing application services. The architecture has been developed as much as possible to conform with current standards.
