After all, with all this Open Source Software movement nowadays, is it
possible to distribute applications in source code form (rather in
bytecode form) to various devices or stations? 

Compile, link, etc ... are done automatically on the local computer
and the binaries are stored wherever it is more appropriate.

You can ask the application to execute whenever you want without
reloading, or you can replace it with a newer version if necessary.

I see some benefits to this approach, but, did i miss something?
