Abstract
A distributed computer system in which a server application performs operations responsive to operation requests from a client application. The client application initially identifies an operation for the server application to perform with a short identifier of the operation. If the short identifier is ambiguous, the server application sends the client application a reply indicating that the short identifier was ambiguous. The client application responds by sending a long identifier which uniquely identifies the operation. Preferably, the short identifier of an operation is derived by performing a hash function on the long identifier of the operation. In object-oriented distributed systems, the operations are methods defined in objects supported by the server application.
