Java Remote Method Invocation (RMI) for Bioinformatics by Pierre Lindenbaum.

From the post:

Java Remote Method Invocation (Java RMI) enables the programmer to create distributed Java technology-based to Java technology-based applications, in which the methods of remote Java objects can be invoked from other Java virtual machines*, possibly on different hosts.“[Oracle] In the current post a java client will send a java class to the server that will analyze a DNA sequence fetched from the NCBI, using the RMI technology.

Distributed computing, both to the client and server, is likely to form part of a topic map solution. This example is one drawn from bioinformatics but the principles are generally applicable.
