  === What is Jini? ===
  Jini technology is a service oriented architecture that defines a programming model which both exploits and extends Java technology to enable the construction of secure, distributed systems consisting of federations of well-behaved network services and clients. Jini technology can be used to build adaptive network systems that are scalable, evolvable and flexible as typically required in dynamic computing environments. 
  
- Jini is designed to help developers deal with [[http://weblogs.java.net/jag/Fallacies.html|The Eight Fallacies of Distributed Computing]] (Dead Link...) Jini offers a number of powerful capabilities such as [[JOW_Service_Discovery]] and [[JOW_mobile_code]].

  The term Jini refers to both a set of [[JOW_specifications]] and an implementation; the latter is referred to as the [[JOW Jini Starter Kit]]. Both the specifications and the Starter Kit have been released under the Apache 2.0 license and have been offered to the [[http://incubator.apache.org/|Apache Software Foundation's Incubator]]
