I had some questions on Annex E, Distributed Systems, DSA, to which I
have got good answers. When rereading Annnex E in the RM my inter-
pretation is that it is describing ONE program that may be
split in partitions that can be distributed over several nodes. 

Can I use the DSA features to write a client-server solution the 
same way as I could with e.g. RPC. When I look at the examples in the
Rational it seems as if I need a unique executable for each client 
(partition). This would mean I could not invoke two instances of the
same client executable because I would then have two partitions with 
the same ID executing at the same time.

Is this a property of the partitioning utility or does Annex E
prohibit such constructs. Perhaps I have misunderstood the RM
once again.
