Many distributed applications require 24/7/365 availability,and still need to be updated. We analyze how to updatesuch applications on-the-.y. This a challenging tasknot only because performing the updates without closing theapplication is dif.cult, but also because updates may introducepotential version con.icts between various applicationcomponents. We develop a framework (called DUCS)that facilitates dynamic updates of component-based distributedapplications. DUCS supports adaptation of existingapplications, dynamic component replacement, statetransfer, and interface modi.cations by utilizing so-calledinterface adapters.
