  • Is "Software Bus" same thing as coarse grain software integration?
  • Does a scripting (interpreted) language such as PERL (an environment for document manipulation) or Visual Basic encompass both terms?

What are requirements?
  • At system level -- metacomputers, and/or MPP's, and/or PC's ...
