Abstract
As a result of new programming languages for the internet like Java, the paradigm of disseminating applications over the net has recently become popular. The process of dissemination is straightforward, as long as it is only done in local networks. But emerging applications in entertainment, electronic commerce or even embedded computing need to be disseminated on a country-wide or global scale. On this scale, dissemination can cause considerable costs. How this cost can be minimized for object-oriented applications is the topic of this paper.
