| <p>The <a href="http://www.eclipse.org/riena">Riena</a> project is the foundation for building multi-tier enterprise client/server | |
| applications. As such Riena is broadening the usage of the service oriented architecture of OSGi/Equinox | |
| by providing access to local and remote services in a transparent way. Using this uniform programming | |
| model, the components of Riena and the business components of the enterprise application can be | |
| developed regardless of their target location. <br/> | |
| The Riena user interface components will support a business process oriented user | |
| interface visualization and navigation metaphor which is alternative to the default | |
| RCP workbench layout.</p> |
