Nov 2, 2011 at 10:59 comment added Lee Kowalkowski How about naming it based on what it's for rather than how it does it? E.g. mirror, backup, share, cache.

Nov 1, 2011 at 18:46 comment added pixelbobby I'm a Sr. Software Engineer in the IT field, and I will agree with @MarkBooth on this one. However, in a network structure, you may refer to something like this simply as a "node" by default. But I think "peer" is suffice for application development whereas "node" may be more of a networking term.

Nov 1, 2011 at 14:41 comment added Mark Booth Most network applications both send and receive, that is the nature of communication. In a client/server system the client usually makes requests and the server services them, replying with requested data or replying that data was or wasn't received. Since you are creating a peer application, each instance of your application is a peer so could be named as such, e.g. MyApplicationPeer.

Nov 1, 2011 at 7:53 comment added Akbar This is a peer application running on two different machines, sending/receiving data to-and-fro with its peer.
Nov 1, 2011 at 7:15 comment added Codie CodeMonkey Can you give some more details? There might be a more precise word that we can suggest if we know more about the role of this program.
