Lessons to Apply
Scalability and fault tolerance are highly amenable to quantification
Analysis like the one shown can help identify the tradeoffs between scalability, fault tolerance, complexity of implementation, and functionality
- At the technological level, they can drive the decisions involved in the design of mobile code mechanisms
- At the application level, they can help characterize the notion of scalability and fault tolerance in a given application domain, and to evaluate the benefits brought in it by mobile code
