Afaiu this does not entirely describe neither the element nor the protocol,
mainly as it also provides input communication (interaction)
Though this might not sound serious or complex enough, my /personal/
preference would still be :
KApplicationOutpost & KSystemOutpost
or (if the names sound too military)
KApplicationEmbassy & KSystemEmbassy
Where KApplication* is a app specific subclass of the more generic KSystem*
Rational:
- outside the core
- you can have many
- acts as contact to external forces
- generic enough to cover input/output
° gathers information
° acts (speaks) as the cores representative
