How about Portable?

So, maybe transportable or transported or forwarded…

Hi Gregg,
Thinking out loud:
Transferable, I think it's close, it works for TransferableObjectFactory, it's
created on demand to transfer a non serializable object via a serialization
stream and it transfers a factory from one jvm to another, in order to recrate
the original object in another jvm.
As for Distributed, transfer would imply the original object is moved from one
place to another (deleted and recreated), while that could occur, it's also
possible for the originating object to be duplicated as well, so it works for
what's currently called SerialReflectionFactory, but Transferable wouldn't be a
candidate for the Distributed interface.
If the original object has state, then it would be a snapshot of the original
object at some point in time, hence memento.
It could be called TransferableMemento or SerializableMemento, it's created
within a ObjectOutputStream and replaced in an ObjectInputStream.
Then that leaves Distributed, perhaps Distributable is better? Other words are
Propagatable, Disseminatable. Latin: disseminare "scattering seeds"
interface Distributable {
SerializableMemento distribute();
}
Dissemino - dis (in all directions) + semino (I plant, I sow).
Cheers,
Peter.

Why not
* RemoteRecreationFactory
* DistributedCloningFactory
* or a combination of the above?
This way the name is after the goal of the class, not its implementation...
