Service-oriented architectures (SoAs) are a popular paradigm for enterprise and data center computing but normally do not perform well on tactical networks, which are often degraded in terms of bandwidth, reliability, latency, and connectivity. This paper presents the agile computing middleware and in particular a transparent network proxy and associated protocols that help address the impedance mismatch that occurs between SoAs and tactical and DIL (Disconnected, Intermittent, and Limited) networks.
