An interaction system is a system that supports the interactions between parts of a distributed system. The authors argue for the explicit design of interaction systems that support application-level interactions, using the interaction system?s externally observable behavior as a starting point. This approach shields the design of application parts that use a supporting interaction system from choices in this interaction system's internal design. The article shows that designers can apply either middleware-centered or protocol-centered development to design an application-level interaction system.
